The top pair have been racing over jumps so may find this too sharp while Jaafel has only won at Dundalk, the latest in a claimer. Rick Dalton is still a maiden but has been placed in seven of nine starts. Odds-on when beaten narrowly at Dundalk three weeks ago he'll make a bold bid to finally get off the mark. However, KARLSBERG made a very promising comeback when runner-up at Leopardstown and Shane Crawley's dual winner still looks on a winnable mark despite a 2lb rise. Sirjack Thomas scored at the Galway Festival in 2021 but hasn't won subsequently though is 10lb lower and stablemate Hightimeyouwon would have a chance at his best
