Verdict

Although dismissed in the market, Clever Court opened his account at the ninth time of asking over an extended 2m4f at Bellewstown. While a 6lb higher mark doesn't appear excessive, the 3m distance is a concern for the son of Court Cave, which may leave the door open for FIRE CORAL. The seven-year-old arrives on the back of a solid third at Limerick and she makes grand appeal returning to her last winning trip. Phildante was beginning to weaken behind the selection that day, but the introduction of Joshua Halford's 7lb claim means she cannot be dismissed.
