    Verdict

    No favourite has won this in nine years and the highest winning weight has been 10st 10lb. Snake Eyes came for this a year ago but got no closer than sixth. However, he arrives in better form this time having won a Listed contest at Sandown so should get into the action. Waxies Dargle looked a nice prospect when scoring at Fairyhouse in November and has been kept fresh for this while Shantou Ed and Katie T are closely matched on their placed efforts at Fairyhouse in November and that looks strong form. Rock The World wasn't far behind Shantou Ed here last month but Pink Coat will need to defy a very long absence which may prove beyond him. CLONDAW WARRIOR landed the November Handicap here on the Flat and though subsequently beaten in Grade 3 company at Cheltenham and Ascot he's on a fair mark and is given the nod over John Quinn's Doncaster winner Kashmir Peak.
