Verdict

BALLYHEIGUE BOY took this contest a year ago and returns in excellent fettle for his bid to retain. He won over C&D in January and scored again subsequently at Ascot. The latest rating hike makes things a bit tougher, but he could be up to it. Pop Rockstar was behind him at Ascot and can make a contest of this while both Tambura and Sandhurst Lad are entitled to hold claims.
