Eurobot made a winning debut over timber over the track and trip in 2019 but has been confined to fences since that year and has mainly raced in very strong handicaps. Franciscan Rock had been threatening to win all winter before getting off the mark in a Thurles maiden and makes his handicap debut. Street Value completed a double over hurdles just over two years ago and has been confined to fences subsequently but RUN FOR PAT (NAP) made a successful handicap debut at Fairyhouse and though 8lb higher his rider can claim an extra 3lb so a double looks on the cards. He holds runner-up Waittillitellyou on the revised terms while West Breeze was ridden by a 7lb claimer when scoring over 2m3f at Clonmel and has been raised 8lb.
