A tough handicap but the chances of Oh Johnny are respected after a fine run to finish second to Ragtime Lucy at Gowran. Moving On hasn't won for almost two years but has dropped to a fair mark and showed some improvement when fourth behind IKANSEA at Limerick recently. The winner was gaining his first-ever victory but hasn't had much racing and should again take care of Moving On and third-placed Arguidos. Matchbook is always worthy of consideration in this grade though he's been struggling at the weights since scoring over the C&D in August. On The Button would have a chance second to none on the form of his victory at Roscommon in August but didn't fire on all cylinders when fancied to follow up at Ballinrobe.
