Classic Concorde disappointed at Limerick after impressing at Kilbeggan. Fleurys Fort would have claims on the pick of his form but has yet to convince over a trip this far. Global Racing can be forgiven his run on soft going at Roscommon but Cappacon races off a higher mark than when placed at Downpatrick and Tramore this summer. Icantsay ran a cracker over fences at Galway off a 14lb higher mark and would be tough to beat if transferring that form back to hurdles but PUMP ROAD (NAP) is at the top of his game and gets 15lb taking into account riders’ claims. He proved he stayed the trip at Roscommon last month.
