In depth
Verdict
HAMMERSTEIN won a Tramore bumper in a canter and looks a smart prospect for Gordon Elliott. This is no easy task on his hurdling debut as Tenth Amendment has performed at a high level over timber and scored on the Flat at Bellewstown in July. Misty Mountain has been going quite well but is 0-19 and lacks scope while Arctic Sofia, who was very well supported at Tramore, couldn't get close to the winner and will need more. Galtymore has had enough chances but may prove best of the remainder.
