In depth
Verdict
Search For A Myth has only had one start over fences finishing a well beaten third at Killarney in October. He reappeared with a victory over hurdles at Wexford in May and can race from 7lb lower back over fences. Clever Currency is 0-7 over fences and was beaten 17 lengths into second on the latter track last month but ASK THE LEADER, three-times a winner over hurdles, made a very encouraging start over fences when runner-up at Downpatrick in May and can go one better. General Ryan, a winner between the flags, has shown a glimmer of ability over regulation fences and could go well at a price.
