In depth

Verdict

Marshall Jennings has struggled off higher marks since winning at Naas and it remains to be seen how Ibergman copes under a 5lb penalty after scoring at Roscommon. Curragh runner-up Club Wexford has not won since 2013 now but Elusive Heights was still in contention when brought down at the Curragh on his handicap debut and can figure. MARKHAN went close dropped back in distance last time but he had won a maiden by a wide-margin over today’s trip at Listowel earlier and David Marnane’s colt gets the nod with Pat Smullen taking over the reins.
