In depth
Verdict
Several of these were due to run at yesterday's meeting including Presswell Lad, who would have to be considered if rerouting here. BILL THE YANK hadn't shown much before attracting good support and landing a poor Ballinrobe handicap over 2m in striking fashion. He's certainly capable of more over this longer trip and a 12lb rise shouldn't be a problem. Moving On arrives in excellent shape having won at Ballinrobe in-between two fine placed efforts. He's getting dangerously high in the weights however though his young rider's claim is a bonus. Raise The Goblet won a chase at Tipperary and started a very short-priced favourite when reverting to hurdles at Wexford. He ran poorly that day but the fast ground may have been responsible and he must have a chance from a very lowly mark.
