Commentary

Walk In The Park gelding who finished third on sole outing in points and shaped well on all 3 bumper starts earlier in the year, exceeding expectations when third of 10 at the Punchestown Festival (2m, good to soft) back in late-April. Interesting hurdling debutant.

What the projection says

Finishes ahead of its price historically, but the delivery record alone does not predict today's finish — it only counts alongside a short-priced top pick. Projected 2nd of 13. Recent form is on the up.
