ANNAGH HAVEN is in good form, landing a Gowran handicap over this trip before good runs at Down Royal and especially over hurdles at Listowel where she was runner-up in a lucrative handicap. She's handed the vote with Tom Madden's claim a bonus. Gaelic Twist was a 50/1 chance when finishing in front of her at Down Royal but that was his first sign of ability and he'll need to produce a repeat to get into the action here. Shadagann ran a superb race when just touched off by Mahrajaan at Listowel as the winner was receiving lumps of weight. Michael Halford's charge should carry his big weight with distinction and should again take care of Mr Snagsby, who was behind at Listowel. The maiden Intense Debate has been slowly dropping to a lenient looking mark and his young rider is good value for his claim.
