Verdict

Wild West didn't pick up when favourite at Ffos Las in March. The better ground here may help but he's starting to look a little exposed now. Berea Boru pulled much too hard on his debut and may do better if settling while Ontheslate won an Irish point-to-point last June, though hasn't been seen since. PRYDE ROCK is a half-brother to bumper and hurdles winner Ryde Back and chaser Joyryder and can make a winning start under Barry Geraghty.
