Verdict

SHELLRUNFORBRIGGS sneaks into this having gone up to a mark of 110 over timber after her win at Limerick last month. The Harzand mare was a good winner then and remains unexposed. She's had two runs over fences in stronger races, with her runner-up effort behind the smart Karia Des Blaises at Thurles in mid-February the highlight. In The Trenches has plenty of chase experience and should be thereabouts reverting to novice company. Drop A Threat has been disappointing but may improve a bit from his chase debut at Tramore.
