Verdict

A trappy affair in which Pinotage could easily prove the answer in the hands of Davey Russell having gone close in a similar event at Downpatrick recently, albeit off a 3lb lower mark. Skellig Rocks is potentially well-treated compared to a higher chase mark but CONNA CROSS could throw up some value if able to rediscover the form he showed when going close over this trip on soft ground at Cork a few runs back.
  1. Conna Cross
