Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer and bumper Awbeg Prince is returning from a long break after a poor run on heavy going at Listowel in September. Anytime Now, another winning bumper, didn't find much at the business end at Tramore when last seen in October but is the type to do better this campaign as is Glorious Legend, who showed much improved form at Kilbeggan earlier this month. PARIS TEXAS hadn't shown much in his opening starts but looked to have made great strides when staying on from the rear over 2m1f at Killarney a couple of weeks ago. With more to come Joseph O'Brien's charge can take this. Glan Y Gors wasn't beaten far when last seen at Clonmel but might need this after a long absence.
