Verdict
This probably won’t take much winning but only a tentative vote goes to LAND LEAGUE, who is still a maiden under Rules but was staying on over 2m3f here last time. Ballycrystal Court never figured over track and trip last month but this is a weaker contest. Tokaramore has shown nothing over fences so far but Tanrudy has placed three times over the larger obstacles, though still looks a few pounds too high.
