Verdict
Liam Gilligan is one of the more experienced riders here and has been on board for the last two starts of She's Made It. Padraig Roche' mare hasn't been beaten far in any of her last five starts and was in the lead at this trip when second at Clonmel last time so she deserves a change of fortune. However, THEREISNODOUBT (NAP) looks the one to be on despite an 11lb rise for his impressive victory at Clonmel. He was travelling well when falling at Thurles on his previous start and a change of surroundings has obviously helped. Leave Your Mark was heavily supported for a Thurles maiden in November and was only headed close home while Empire Burleque led for a long way at Punchestown and kept on when headed. Joseph O'Brien's Commandant disappointed at Limerick but had won on faster going at Thurles earlier and would be a threat if the ground dried out.
