Verdict

One of the less obvious contenders in this is Wait Here who posted an encouraging effort when third in a competitive affair at the Galway Festival and prior to that was a good third over this C&D. Also in the mix is Tombstone who banished the memory of his disappointing run in the Galway Hurdle when only finding the in-form Westland Row too good at Kilbeggan. His talented apprentice jockey offsets the burden of some of his heavy weight. We'll take a chance on CONRON though, whose latest effort over hurdles when runner-up to a well handicapped JP McManus sort at the Punchestown Festival reads well, and he still looks well-handicapped off just a 3lb higher mark.
  1. Conron
  2. Tombstone
  3. Wait Here
