Verdict

Thegoaheadman returns to action raised 6lb for winning at Downpatrick back in May while Seeyouinvinnys won a maiden at the latter track in the same month. Holy Motivation landed a double at Perth last month but Davy Russell partners stablemate Sassy Yet Classy today while Theatre World is upped in class after scoring at Navan. Ozzie's Way won over fences last time and finished ahead of Dragon Houdini when scoring over timber at Down Royal during the summer but West Coast Time continues to struggle and OWL CREEK BRIDGE is preferred. The latter won over a shorter trip here last year and will be sharper for last month’s reappearance over 3m at Listowel
