In depth

Verdict

Cracking Name won a course and distance handicap in October but could just need this comeback under a big weight. MIRACLES IN MAY had shown virtually nothing in maidens last summer but it was a different matter at Tipperary last week where he stayed on strongly behind Invincible Queen. Normal progress will see him difficult to beat. Dance Alone is on a very long losing run and only slowly coming down the weights while Heavens Align makes her handicap debut after a fair run at Dundalk.
