In depth

Verdict

DREAL DEAL landed a gamble when scoring over hurdles at Navan for which he's been rasied 19lb. He comes here on a mark of 45 so a follow-up will be expected. Dashing Diamond has been running well enough from this sort of mark to be a threat while Sleepy Head, a winner at Fairyhouse in May, will be better for a run over a trip too short at Tipperary last month and looks the main danger if the selection doesn't run up to scratch. A Place Apart has yet to win in 15 starts on the Flat but has been placed on five occasions and can earn some place money here. William Of Wykeham has been in good form over hurdles and would have to be considered if getting a run.
