Cecil Corbett has been struggling since going up 12lb for his victory at Punchestown and is probably still too high. CURRAGH GOLAN hasn't run since October but made a successful reappearance a year ago so the lack of a run won't be a problem and the veteran can claim his seventh career victory. Coldstonesober makes a quick reappearance after running at Limerick on Sunday and with conditions in his favour should make a bold bid to gain his ninth career success. Benemeade hasn't won since 2014 but his yard is going well so he shouldn't be dismissed now in a much more suitable grade.
