Gain De Cause came here on Saturday and was always travelling easily when landing a 2m5f handicap though he's carrying a 7lb penalty and was ridden by a 7lb claimer. Gateau De Miel easily won here in November and can't have been right when beaten a distance at Leopardstown in December. Rachael prefers him to Irascible, who she rode to victory at Cork. HAPPY DREAMS has been in winning form over hurdles and fences and is looking on a manageable mark while Macs Charm is making his handicap debut after two very good runs at Gowran. Sir Bob was beaten a long way behind the selection at Naas in November but has improved massively since then.
