Verdict

BALLYFINBOY won this last year and is just 1lb lower despite scoring twice subsequently. A mistake at the first unsettled him when fancied at Downpatrick last time and this looks another good opportunity. Line View has never won over fences but is getting closer and only succumbed in the closing stages when beaten narrowly by Blazing Beacon at Limerick. A repeat of that run would see him difficult to keep out of the frame. Dual hurdles winner Royal Boru makes his handicap debut over fences but hasn't shown much in three runs to date while The Shepherd King has won once in 21 starts over fences and that was back in 2013.
