Verdict
Plenty of these arrive in good form including Harvey's Quay, who went up 13lb for an impressive handicap victory at Clonmel. Upping The Anti was an even easier winner in a maiden on the same track having made all while Whiskeywealth also made just about every yard there earlier this month. Big Debates landed a Ballinrobe handicap hurdle in May and has subsequently won over fences on this track while Young Fitzy completed a double before finding a 6lb rise beyond him on his hat-trick bid. HGRANCA DE THAIX is progressing as stepping up in trip and made the winner pull out the stops over 2m4f at Listowel so gets the vote to go one better in a tricky handicap.
