Verdict
SWEET MY LORD hasn't been in the best of form since scoring over fences in April but he's suited by the race conditions here and should get a confidence-booster. The once high-class Karabak has shown nothing for a very long time while Maller Tree has to race with a penalty for his victory at Naas last October and has been running poorly over fences. Time To Work had looked quite promising before a very moderate effort at Sligo but has it all to do while Compton Court looks outclassed.
