In depth
Verdict
Four Horsemen has been in good form over timber and makes his chasing debut as does PICTURES OF HOME. The latter gave notice of an imminent victory when narrowly beaten over timber at Gowran before making his stamina count at Kilbeggan. Pino Boy was beaten when brought down at the last on his debut over fences at Clonmel but reverted to hurdles with a very good run at Ballinrobe. Thegoaheadman had been in good form before facing the banks course at Punchestown which didn't suit while Fill The Tank has bits and pieces of form that put him in the frame.
