      In depth

      Verdict

      GLEANN NA NDOCHAIS scored over a shorter trip here in July. He was well ahead of third-placed Ultra Light and the latter has since finished much closer at Bangor. Alistair Whillans' charge can go in again. The Ice Factor posted a better effort over these fences last month and has scope for further improvement but Dotties Dilema looks to be treading water at present and was still beaten 10 lengths when second here last time. Attycran was also well beaten off today's higher mark recently having won at Cartmel before that.
