A typically fierce handicap to assess, it might be worth siding with SO YOU THOUGHT , despite the fact this race has been won by a three-year-old just once in the last 10 years. He lacks in experience but ran an excellent race when second to Jet Streaming at Galway last time on his second handicap outing. He runs from the same mark , with blinkers now added, while his trainer has gone from a frustrating run to a 29% strike rate over the previous fortnight. Stablemate Foxtrot Charlie , carrying top weight, is a Listed winner already and also has to be respected with Smullen up and the Rosewell House team in such fine tune. Pincheck has been flying since joining Jessica Harrington and is also on the shortlist while the likes of Gold Spinner and Surrounding could have plenty more in the tank and are noted alongside in-form pair Hibou and Tony The Gent in a wide open event.
