Verdict

Dushybeag has been in good form over fences and can run from the same mark back over timber. Cairde Aris makes his handicap debut after his Wexford victory but has nothing in hand over One Cool Princess after she beat him at Cork. Golden Ticket had a successful spell over fences before reverting to hurdles with a very good run behind Good As Gold here so he can get into the frame while Lilshane is better than he showed at Killarney last week. Eight Till Late ran well at the Punchestown Festival after scoring at Wexford but, in a wide-open race, it's DISPUTED who gets the nod after gaining his first success at Tipperary for which a 6lb rise is virtually cancelled out by Luke Dempsey's claim.
