Verdict
Ruby Walsh was on board when The Corby Glenn gained his only success over fences at Fairyhouse in February and connections have snapped him up again for the nine-year-old, who hasn't been seen since falling on the same track in April. It wasn't the best of races when Isourbell finished runner-up to Skidroe Joe at Tramore and the winner has been well beaten subsequently but BURNT OIL BABE looked a very nice chasing prospect when storming away with a Downpatrick handicap recently and Willie Murphy's mare, a prolific winner between the flags, should be up to defying a 7lbs rise. Fine Call, fourth behind Skeheenarinky here last time, would get a boost if that winner goes well in today's previous event.
