In depth

Verdict

Doctor Deejay has only won once over timber but has run some cracking races in defeat. However, he's taking a massive step-up in trip here and it remains to be seen whether he stays on the soft ground. Caim Hill was in superb form at this time a year ago landing a Grade 2 over fences at Limerick. He reverts to hurdles on a very fair mark and can do much better than he showed at Navan last time. Raz De Maree hasn't had much experience and was having only his fourth start over timber when just touched off by Rivage D'Or in a handicap over this trip at Naas last month. He had earlier been beaten by VICS CANVAS in a Naas bumper and there should be little between them this time though the latter gets the vote as he looked on the upgrade when landing a strong maiden over timber at Limerick and makes his handicap bow from a decent mark.
