    In depth

    Verdict

    HARDY BOY jumped poorly when a beaten favourite at Ffos Las on Saturday but is probably the one to beat in this if making a quick reappearance. Toughasoldboots is the one most likely to take advantage if the Pauling runner doesn’t turn up, though Lough Carra may improve for the fitting of cheekpieces. Petrastar is making his chasing bow following a lay-off.
