In depth

Verdict

Rebel Rock led an Irish 1-2 when beating Glenturn in what turned out to be a war of attrition at a very testing Uttoxeter in November. He's been raised 7lb and is still out of the handicap here and faces a much more difficult task. BETHEHOLYGOBBS relished the soft ground at Thurles last month when outstaying Burnt Oil Babe for his first success over fences. He's another with a 7lb rise to contend with but this looks within his capabilities and he can complete the double. UK import Supreme Builder has been finding 2m4f too short and will appreciate this trip but, along with top-weight Not Before Eight, he's managed to go up in the weights without winning. Hidden Present wasn't far behind Supreme Builder at Navan but only got as far as the second when fancied at Down Royal last week.
