Verdict

My Manekineko was due to run in the 4.15 at Gowran yesterday. Mystique Heights, a dual winner on the Flat, gained his first success over hurdles at Naas in a race that has worked out so a 5lb rise doesn't look insurmountable. British Art was behind in that event and has done better since stepped up in trip but Silver Star had some strong form in the autumn and has been given a break since a poor run at Cheltenham in October. Martin Brassil's horses have been running well and GENEVA BARRACKS (NAP) looked on good terms with himself when scoring at Naas so a 5lb rise can see him complete a double. The veteran Oscars Den has been in good form but keeps going up in the weights without winning.
