In depth

Verdict

Ange D'Or Javilex was still well beaten when fourth at Fairyhouse last time and stablemate THREE KINGS makes more appeal. He returns to the larger obstacles having gone very close over hurdles at Ayr a week ago and Gordon Elliott’s charge is also preferred to Roxboro Road. The latter finished a distant third at Clonmel recently and headgear is applied today. It’s hard to make a case for any of the remainder in their current form but Kilbarry Calling was placed back in November and Big Bad Brian slips further down the weights.
