Sunset Nova won this last year and hasn't been running as badly as form figures suggest. Stanhope gained his third course victory when beating a huge field on heavy ground in October while Tawaazon has been in excellent form and looks best of James McAuley's trio. Livingston Range came good at Dundalk in December and finished a close second in a big field of handicappers here in September while Mogwli has won from a higher mark around here. The latter was a good fourth behind QUEEN'S PARDON (NAP) at the Curragh last month with a subsequent winner in second but the winner, from a yard going well, is taken to defy a 7lb rise.
