Verdict
The stoutly-bred Solway Molly ran better than expected when second here last month but she is going to need further and hurdles to thrive. Enki Flacke has something to prove after a poor run at Leopardstown so this can go to a newcomer. Stone Picker has a nice pedigree for jumping but the Sea The Stars gelding MASRUR will probably have more natural speed and Stuart Crawford’s bumper runners here are always worth a second look.
