Verdict

Dark Outsider won this last year from NOT FOR YOU and though he looks to have been primed for a repeat he's 15lb higher. The runner-up hasn't run subsequently but that's never a problem for one from his yard and with such a big pull he should gain revenge and take this. Shower Cross had three runs over fences last summer and didn't take to them. However, he's been in cracking form over timber and gets another chance. Swift ran his best race to date over fences at Tramore last month though this looks a bit better race while Analyse That failed to take advantage of a lower chase mark at Kilbeggan.
