In depth

Verdict

Ballyglass may have gone close on his debut here last month but for being impeded and may overturn places with Howyabud, who made a bold bid to make all. Hey Johnny hasn't really threatened so this can go to a newcomer. Wicklow Flyer is a full-sister to a winning hurdler while Holmes St Georges cost €50,000 but DATA BREACH, a half-brother to a 5f winner, should have more basic pace than these and can make a successful debut. Kitsilano hails from a yard going well and is another newcomer to note.
