Verdict

UNANSWERED can cap a good week for John Breslin and Tony Martin by gaining compensation for his near misses on the Flat here on Wednesday and Friday. Lariat has held his form well on the Flat lately and is respected back hurdling for Ado McGuinness. Darkened and Listentillitellyea were 1-2 in a hurdle here at the start of the week and also make the shortlist.
