In depth

Verdict

JACK SLADE has been raised a further 3lb since finishing second at Downpatrick but is back over his best trip today and Jonathan Moore again takes off that amount. Noel Meade's top weight has been in terrific form this summer and should take all the beating. The four-year-old Finding Touch has hinted at ability and the extra half-mile should bring about further improvement. Tb Broke Her ran well last time at Tipperary while it looks as though Stonehall Jack is to be kept over hurdles for now, though a return to chasing will probably on the cards in the autumn.
