In depth
Verdict
Breeze With Ease has yet to prove he stays this far over timber but won over the minimum trip here last month and is only 1lb higher. He should get involved but it's time GLENBANE GENT lost his maiden tag and this is a good opportunity. Paul Rothwell's charge was in the process of running his best race ever when leading and coming to grief at the last over 2m6f at Thurles and can gain compensation despite being raised 2lb. Tequila Lord has never raced beyond two miles in 14 starts over timber but is generally staying on and the trip should suit. After beating Martin Scruff at Punchestown, Turnonthegas was a massive disappointment at Limerick and can do much better than that.
