Cafe Con Leche has been raised a massive 13lb for last month's comfortable victory at Limerick and he'd finished a long way behind Carbon King when the latter gained his third victory in four starts at Navan. The winner has also been raised by the same amount but has a 7lb claimer on board so should make a bold bid. Holmes St Georges has been sent to the UK for all of his five starts over hurdles after landing a bumper, scoring at Musselburgh in November. He's run well over longer trips the last twice so should get involved but YOUR HONOR looks the one to beat. He'd been showing promise in strong maidens before making all for a very impressive victory at Limerick and an opening mark of 121 may prove lenient. Wee Charlie has been threatening to win before getting off the mark in a Naas handicap and a 7lb rise is wiped out by his rider's claim.
