Bomber Jackson came with a long late run to catch the well-supported Pepparpot over the course and distance three weeks ago. A 2lb swing towards the runner-up this time puts them very close together. Colla Pier scored over the trip at Fairyhouse last May and has had mixed results on the Flat and over timber subsequently. Eloge gained her only success to date over the trip here in October. Her next run appeared to come too soon and she bounced back with as fine effort over 1m4f last week where she led at tonight's distance before being caught close home by Well Insured. CRECORA had his first run on the track in October and was tackling 1m4f for the first time. He's won over a mile so this should be ideal and he hasn't had much racing so gets the vote to take this under Seamie Heffernan.
