Verdict
Summer Tide won a course and distance maiden last summer and doesn't look on a bad mark but DRUMBEAR (NAP) made all to land a Sedgefield novices' event by 24 lengths in February which is why he's on a mark of 122 for this. However, the assessor is only guessing at his ability and there could be much more to come. Bal De Rio won a Thurles maiden and a Limerick claimer last spring but hasn't been seen for a year while Walnut Beach ran poorly at the Punchestown Festival having won a maiden there in February. Golf Marin ran very well for fourth in that Festival handicap and would be difficult to beat if getting a run from his reserve spot.
