7/2
Well supported when returning to winning ways in 8-runner handicap chase (7/2) at this course (20f, good to soft) 15 days ago. 8 lb higher now but that may not be enough to prevent the follow up.

Back from 3 months off when solid fourth over hurdles at this course in May and shaped as if still in good form when respectable fourth of 15 in handicap chase at Roscommon (25.1f, good to soft, 6/1) the following month. Respected.

Forecasts

Slane Hill (85/40), A Wave Of The Sea (7/2), Foxy Girl (9/2), My Gaffer (13/2), Big Stage (13/2), Clonshire River (11/1), Tullybeg (16/1), That's About Right (25/1)

Recent course winner A WAVE OF THE SEA is still well in on old form and can score again. Slane Hill and Foxy Girl may provide the chief threat.
