After seconds in similar races at Cork and Fairyhouse, Shakeytry will be fancied to go one better today. My Manekineko has been placed several times but is now 0-20 over fences and not getting any younger. Stucker Hill was third at Limerick on her chasing bow and Sunrise Lady is back in the right grade. Dasmyhoss and First Class Return are experienced but Empire Burleque was disappointing over hurdles considering he’s won a bumper and a point. CHIEF OF POLICE also has a pointing background so should be suited by a switch to chasing having run well over timber at Punchestown in January.
