Second at Sligo on his most recent jumps outing, the seven-year-old subsequently ran well in a higher grade on the flat. It would be disappointing for connections if the gelding can't exploit a mark of 100. Tingarran Express has to be of interest given that the mare seldom runs a bad race at this track. A winner at Clonmel in April, she has reached the frame on each of her five outings since then. With the Bill Durkan yard amongst the winners of late, topweight Wandering Rocks could enter calculations. Oakley Brown is good value for his 5lb claim in races of this nature.
