Verdict

Elusive In Paris has a huge burden to carry in this claimer but a 10lb rise for his last victory makes life difficult in handicaps. The Ice Meister was beaten in a similar event at Sligo when well supported but this slightly shorter trip should be in his favour. His stable companion HARVEY SPECTER has only had four starts, scoring on soft ground at Bellewstown before finishing last of seven in a Galway handicap last week. He wasn't beaten far that day and can get back to winning ways. Shamar has a chance at the weights but generally needs further and testing conditions though Kevin Manning's presence is a positive. Blue Skimmer is inconsistent but if first-time blinkers have the desired effect he could get involved.
