Verdict

Peking To Paris has run poorly since a reasonable opening effort at Fairyhouse and is best watched but IRONMILL LAD has been a bit unfortunate not to have got on the scoresheet and can do so over this longer trip after a staying-on second to Superior Quality at Downpatrick. Winning point-to-pointer Royal Sam has gone close on a couple of occasions and will love the conditions, while Kilcooley Castle made a good impression on his debut over this trip at Listowel when he didn't get much luck in running and can prove a threat.
