Verdict
Cliffside Park has a penalty for a bumper victory and has been a bit hit and miss over hurdles. He'll have trouble conceding 24lb, including Jack Kennedy's claim, to FREE SCORPION as Mick Hourigan's charge has come up against some useful opposition in his recent starts. Zagelle did well to finish a close third to The Scourge at Kilbeggan then found very fast ground against him on this track so he's likely to do better while Sam King showed enough at Wexford to suggest he can get into contention. Eric The Grey ran twice at the Galway Festival and should be capable of a big run in this lesser grade.
