In depth
Verdict
Loom Large started favourite for a Roscommon handicap in May but found testing conditions against him. He again attracted support over 1m2f at Navan last month and just got up on the line. Antilia showed promise at Bellewstown and makes her handicap debut on what could prove a fair mark, especially with Hugh Horgan's claim to aid her cause. Butterfly Garden has only been tackling her own age group and just failed to hold on over 1m6f at Navan where she had Caramel Lizard behind. She looks certain to go well but CHARLIE LUCIANO gets the nod as Colin Keane is certain to make this a stamina test as his mount was just touched off over hurdles last month after finishing runner-up over 1m7f at Leopardstown.
