KORBOUS scored over 7f at Leopardstown last month before just failing to concede 9lb to Knights Templar there a few days later. He's been raised 3lb for that defeat but is running so well at present that he gets the nod. Reckless Lad came with a late burst to score at Killarney but though only 4lb higher he's never won off a mark this high. The front-running three-year-old Frozen Lake is on the upgrade and makes his handicap debut from what looks a fair mark and though Kodiac's Back has never won over this far he certainly wasn't stopping when scoring over 7f at Limerick. Angel Of Joy has been running well and, with his rider's claim to help, could snatch a place.
