THE KING OF BREGA has been raised a massive 13lb for his victory over this trip at Thurles last week but he won so easily that the extra isn't likely to prevent a follow-up. Derryarkin showed his first sign of form at Downpatrick last time and is on such a lowly mark that he has to be considered if getting a run from his reserve spot. Dear Boss has fallen on his last two starts over fences but the presence of AP McCoy in the saddle should galvanise him and he's well enough handicapped over timber. Lord Of Isenay has run well on two occasions here but makes his handicap debut with a big weight so Back To Drumdeel looks more of a threat after being beaten a short head at Tipperary.
