Verdict

The booking of Nina Carberry for Charles O'Brien's four-year-old MARCHING ORDERS catches the eye here. He looked ready for a step up in trip when a one-paced fourth over 2m here three weeks ago and looks to have more scope than the majority of his rivals. Take A Shot has to be considered after wins at Tipperary and over this C&D in June, though he hasn't raced since while Riotman was put up 5lb after losing his maiden tag at Kilbeggan. Kirbybroguelantern still has the ability to be a factor at this level but, like Tico, has his fair share of weight and Ballygill Gale seems better over fences nowadays.
