PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
There was no disguising the superiority that FERNS LOCK held over what was a very competitive field at Dromahane last month when he easily brushed aside subsequent winner Dinny Lacey on his return to action. The potentially reopposing Wowsham was over ten lengths behind him on that occasion, and he looks to be the class act in this. Shantou Show won his maiden around here in February, and he has gone from strength to strength since then, signing off on last season by finishing close to top hunter chasers Billaway and Vaucelet. He could make a big impression on his open debut.
