A talented performer on his day, might have found two-miles a bit sharp last time at Navan. Easily won a Grade Two over this C&D in October and the one to beat on that form.
Gained a deserved win recently at Clonmel having contested some hot handicaps previously. Has his chance again in small field contest and likely to give his running.
Will find this much less daunting than when running in the Thyestes here recently but unlikely to be good enough to match these rivals.
Quite some time since we've seen the best of him, fell on debut for this trainer at Cork in December and hard to see him winning this.
Forecasts
Ballycasey (4/7), Clarcam (4/1), Montys Meadow (4/1), Mozoltov (12/1)
BALLYCASEY sets the standard on his C&D win back in October, two-miles might have caught him out at Navan since but he has the class to stamp his authority on these three rivals and take home another Grade Two prize. Clarcam gained a deserved success last time at Clonmel but he made hard enough work of beating Val De Ferbet and that might put him in trouble against the selection. Mozoltov's best form would see him in with a chance but it's a long time since he produced it while Montys Meadow is likely to struggle as the race goes on.
1. Ballycasey
2. Clarcam
3. Mozoltov
