Verdict

TIDE OF TIME won this a year ago and has scored three times subsequently which is why he’s 17lb higher. However, he’s only 4lb higher than his latest success at Navan, form which has been boosted by the runner-up. Master Matt also arrives in top form having given Truth Prevails 13lb and a beating at Navan, with That’s Mad behind, while Earls has won twice in recent weeks and wasn’t beaten far in a tight finish at Dundalk on Wednesday. Mokhalad has won three times here though hasn’t been in the best of form. Big Gossey was engaged in the 7.45 at Dundalk last night.
