MOSSY FEN ROAD makes plenty of appeal on paper, a costly point winner who has been given time, and he gets the vote before market clues. Orderoftheday and Misteroddsocks are dangers.

Verdict
€125,000 Walk In The Park gelding from the family of smart hurdler/top-class chaser Bellshill. Free both starts 8 months apart but saw it out quite well having been prominent for a long way at Hereford on return in a hood 7 weeks ago. Could figure from the front again.

Lightly-raced winner in points, after which he fetched 6 figures, was well backed and offered something to work on at Ayr (7/2) 4 weeks ago. Should improve.
