Verdict

CRAMERS VALLEY left previous exploits well behind and shaped like the best horse at the weights when runner-up at Naas 6 weeks ago, staying on well having been left poorly placed given how the race unfolded. He's worth chancing to build on the promise of that effort, with Clonmel scorer Always Enchanting and Coco Kolada heading up the dangers. Shana Cloon is also worth a second look.
