Verdict

Only four runners line up for this novice chase but they should all pay their way over the coming months. Ballyadam Brook was impressive at Killarney last month but SWEET MY LORD, a winner three times over hurdles, made a winning start to his chase career at Tramore and will appreciate the step back up in distance. He's proven on heavy ground whereas Carlito Brigante, arguably the class act, is better on quicker going and has a bit to prove after a disappointing run behind Dazzling Suzie at Kilbeggan in June. Pride Of The Artic has won his last two at Down Royal and Galway but will struggle to overturn Killarney running with Carlito Brigante in the spring on worse terms.
