Verdict
Banada Bridge had been running poorly before a much better effort over slightly further at Leopardstown in March. REFLECTIONIST had shown almost nothing before being well supported for a Clonmel handicap where he found Rathnaleen Kal just too strong in the closing stages. He's been raised 3lb but a similar effort would see him difficult to beat. Rule Of June won over fences in August and is 10lb lower over timber.
