Verdict
Enniskillen won the opening race of the meeting on Tuesday under Jamie Codd, who wasn't on board when Peter Maher's charge finished runner-up in this last year to SHIN A VEE. The champion amateur-elect could make a difference this time but the winner will have been trained for this, which he first won in 2009, and can defy the years and score again. Pass The Ball arrives in good form having won a point at Bellurgan in very easy fashion while the youngster Das Mooser might have been unbeaten between the flags but for unseating his rider on his debut and was a very convincing winner at Ballingarry, though that was last summer.
