Verdict

Tinakellylad has some decent form over fences but a strike-rate of 1-20 is off-putting and he's been out of form recently. ORDINARY MAN's overall form looks too good for these though he has a penalty to carry. His latest run behind Frisco Depot at Limerick was arguably his best to date and this looks within his capabilities. Spill The Beans has won over hurdles and fences here though his ability to last out the trip is unknown but Galant Ferns should have no problems staying and he could provide a threat as he looked a decent chasing prospect when scoring easily at Thurles last February and has mainly been confined to hurdling.
