In depth

Verdict

Glenabo Bridge won over course and distance around this time last year and is 3lb lower. Round The Buoy and Lady L'lerom could make an impact from near the foot of the weights but MY NEWBROOK ROSE has gone close twice off higher marks since winning at Fairyhouse in November and she’s only been raised a pound since her latest second in a better race that this. Memory Of Youth has gone up 9lb after getting off the mark at the 13th attempt at Fairyhouse while Emancipator has been beaten off lower marks the last twice.
