In depth

Verdict

Not the easiest of handicaps to unravel but Chief Of Panama should carry his big weight with distinction. Liam Cusack's charge has been placed at around this trip and went well on his return to action at Wexford, though his best form is on quicker ground. The five-year-old MISS PEACETIME has been making steady progress and was having only her fifth start over hurdles when battling to victory over this trip at Tramore. She's been raised 5lb, which looks fair enough, and can complete a double. Abarta has been in decent form over fences and is on a fair mark but Fantastic Bob is another who would prefer faster going.
