Kylecrue^b²⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 11-12| J: L Quinlan⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 123| CD

2/1

Last two runs off this mark produced good runs at Navan and Limerick and he has been highly tried on both starts since. Return to 2m4f a positive.

Form: 884260

Just Get Cracking⁶¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Paul Townend| T: J Dullea| OR: 121| BF

11/10

Made mistakes when last tackling these fences in 2017 and, prior to his Limerick victory, he was seen as a Tramore specialist. Latest run over fences, off this mark, leaves him with something to prove.

Form: 6-20215

Capture The Drama⁴⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-3| J: Mr E Mahon⁽⁷⁾| T: Aengus King| OR: 114| C| D

9/2

Able to dictate matters when gaining a course win in December. 4lb higher here and better on much softer ground than expected.

Form: 678730

Presenting Mahler²⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: D E Mullins| T: J P Ryan| OR: 110| CD

8/1

Poor on last two starts but out of her depth last time. Credible chance on her December fourth to Mrs Lovett.

Form: 740770

Forecasts

Just Get Cracking (11/10), Kylecrue (2/1), Capture The Drama (9/2), Presenting Mahler (8/1)

Capture The Drama is discounted on account of the going but the other three are hard to split. Just Get Cracking has recent winning form, but that leaves him less well-handicapped than his rivals and he did not jump these fences particularly well on his last visit. Presenting Mahler is dropped in class and her two rus over fences on good ground in December give her every chance. KYLECRUE is at the veteran stage of his career, but he has shaped well on his last two runs off a mark of 123 and this is less competitive than most of his recent outings.
