Verdict

Beef To The Heels looks a very useful recruit after a comfortable success in a point at Cloyne last year but may need this after a long break. CAIRDIN landed a bumper at Galway in July then made a very satisfactory start over timber behind Viaduct Joey in heavy ground at Listowel and the winner has scored subsequently. Further progress will see him very difficult to beat and he should have the edge on Dynamic Approach despite the latter's fine run behind Texas Jack at Fairyhouse. Forty Foot Tom ran some decent races in good company last season and should be winning soon as should Minella For Value, who made a bright start over timber behind Sword Of Destiny here a couple of weeks ago. Sin Palo makes his hurdling bow after showing good form in bumpers and looks certain to make a hurdler.
