Verdict

Henry De Bromhead has some good chances at Killarney today but Rachael comes here specifically to ride BRAVE WAY (NAP), who landed the odds in convincing fashion at Limerick and makes her handicap debut. Siberian Prince landed a beginner's race at Limerick and only just failed to concede 7lb to Mi Lighthouse back there last month. Jack Hackett has competed at a higher level since a comfortable victory here in June but winning hurdler Old Town Garde needs to step-up on what he's shown to date over fences. Arthur's Baby is running well and has to be respected with her rider's claim a bonus.
