Verdict
AGENT BORU won a point-to-point in April and reappeared last month with a fine run in a Navan bumper behind the promising The Rory Story. He can go one better though Noel Meade trains that winner and has Bel Ami De Sivola engaged here. His last two runs have been over timber and he showed real potential when runner-up in a huge field on heavy ground at Down Royal. Eagle Ridge was behind the selection at Navan but that was his racecourse debut and he can get closer while Washington Lady, who started favourite when making a successful point-to-point debut at Tattersalls Farm two years ago, is an interesting entry.
