Verdict

BIG SHU can take this as he beat a big field at Punchestown in April and was in touch when falling in a better race there last month. He had No Notions behind in the first of those races and the latter has since gone on to land a similar event at Killarney where he just touched off The Mull. Doctor Pat won a point at Athlacca in a canter and is capable of a big run for Nina Carberry while That Beats Banaher ran the race of his life behind On The Fringe at Punchestown, the race where Big Shu fell when in contention. Lydon House stays forever so is another to consider in an open contest.
