In depth

Verdict

Paddy The Celeb is extremely well handicapped and showed a bit more dash over a trip too short last time. Trump Card and Jake Peter fought out a finish over 1m6f at Navan in October with the former just holding on. There's nothing between them again though the latter has since won over hurdles and can gain his revenge. Time For Mabel was six lengths behind the pair at Navan but has since landed a 3m handicap hurdle at Clonmel. Los Alamos has also scored over timber recently but was beaten by TEOLOGIA over this trip at Thurles in October. Jim Bolger's filly found 1m4f too short on her next start on this track but back over this trip she may be good enough to return to winning ways. Power Drive has never run beyond 1m4f.
