Verdict

THEREWILLBEGLORY filled the runner-up berth in her first four outings before disappointing in fourth at Gowran Park when last seen. However, that may have been down to testing ground and, on the balance of her form, the Andrew Slattery-trained filly has fair claims. Mano Chicago and Kilcrea Rock are closely matched on official ratings. The former caught a tartar when outgunned in second at Ballinrobe and again appears to have each-way claims. The latter wasn't at his best in Roscommon but his placed form stands up to scrutiny. Ken Condon's yard has hit form and his Sron Na Caise is a possible improver switched to Polytrack.

Top Tip: Therewillbeglory (12)
Watch out for: Mano Chicago (3)

MANO CHICAGO has proven he retains all of his ability following a lay off and can finally get off the mark here. He brings in some useful handicap and Group form which sets a high standard so if taking to the surface he will be tough to beat. Sron Na Caise has shaped well on both starts to date and is bred to relish this extra distance. He looks the main threat ahead of the returning Therewillbeglory who proved consistent last term.
