In depth

Verdict

Black Zero beat Heavenly Brook by eight lengths when starting his winning run at Gowran but only had a length to spare when completing a hat-trick in December and, with another 7lb to carry, may now be in the assessor's grip. COMPANY COMING makes his handicap debut having just failed to make all over 2m6f at Tramore in December. He was well clear at this trip which should prove ideal. The useful hunter Winter Magic has run reasonably well in his two starts under Rules and should have more to offer while Ryan Treacey's claim should enable Kilcarry Bridge to get competitive, though his mount is still a maiden over fences. Ibetellingyoualie won the hunters' race on the card in 2013 and looks at the right end of the handicap.
