Verdict

ULTRA LIGHT put a disappointing run behind her with a comfortable victory over this trip at Downpatrick last week where she always looked the likely winner. She has a 4lb penalty to carry but, if in that kind of form again, is difficult to oppose. Stop Road Lad has yet to win but is getting closer and a 3lb rise for his narrow defeat at Gowran is wiped out by Martin Burke's claim. Jacks Island landed a cross-country chase at Punchestown in May and may find some of these too quick but Shantalla could prove a threat as he ran well behind Tammy's Hill at Cork on Sunday and is well handicapped compared to his chase rating. Desert Roe is consistent at this sort of level and has had a break since three fair efforts in July.
