Verdict

TORQUAY ROAD is a three-time winner who has a solid chance under his 7lb claimer. The winner of two consecutive handicaps last year, the selection has since shown form over fences and while well held at Kilbeggan last month, drops in class here. Rich Belief scored in a similar claimer at Wexford 13 days ago but has to concede 11lb to the selection, while Woodstream Lad finished second in a Clonmel claimer last month and should also be competitive.
