Verdict
Nobel Joshua won a claimer on the Flat in July and warmed up for this with a run at the Curragh last weekend. He's rated 68 on the level with Severus Alexander 5lb higher after landing a 1m4f handicap on soft going at Listowel last month. The latter should make a bold bid though his stable companion COSMIC HORIZON was a better performer on the Flat despite not having won for a year. His nose second when attempting to concede Scorched Earth 12lb on soft ground at Roscommon was a fine effort. Theatre Of War has the best form of those with experience having only succumbed in the closing stages at Listowel after leading at the last when several of these were behind including Patchouli, who made a couple of bad mistakes and pulled up. Very Excellent was well supported at Ballinrobe and will have come on for the experience.
