In depth
Verdict
Runrized has performed moderately on the Flat since landing a Tramore maiden hurdle in good style and ENNISKERRY (NAP) may have his measure. Barry Connell's charge pulled up when strongly fancied for his hurdling debut but made no mistake at Downpatrick a month ago coming home a very impressive winner. John Ryan saddles a pair and Ferdia made a successful racecourse debut at Ballinrobe, though stable companion The Little Yank has been racing in strong company and had a real chance in the 2.05 at Listowel yesterday.
