In depth

Verdict

A typical 30-runner Curragh sprint handicap to end proceedings. Miss Jabeam has won here before and is dropping to a winnable mark while Teddy Boy was beaten less than a length in a big field at Navan on Sunday when Showmolina was unlucky in-running. Trueba is another course and distance winner with claims while Majeski Man's second to Zephron in a huge field here last month puts him in the frame. Baby Power won this in 2019 from a mark of 49 but is 12lb higher and though Tyrian's Dream completed a double here in the autumn both victories were over 7f and he's 8lb higher. ELEUTHERA won over 5f here in August and has his rider's 10lb claim to aid his cause, as he did when runner-up to Art Of Unity at Navan last month, form that gives him every chance in this.
