Ballyadam Approach is improving at a rate of knots and beat a big field in a Killarney maiden but has to make his handicap debut with a big weight and this looks tough. Table Mountain gained his first success over hurdles at Navan and has since run behind Fame And Glory on the same track. He's gone up 7lb in the ratings and may struggle to concede weight to ROSS NA RIGH, a winner over fences at Clonmel before a very good second over hurdles at Kilbeggan and nicely handicapped here. Captain Ocana has still to win over hurdles but Enter The Indian is in cracking form, following his victory over a big field at Tipperary with a short-head defeat on the Flat at Clonmel. Iron Duke gained a shock victory at Cork and will find this much tougher from 7lb higher.
