Winning point-to-pointer LOCH NA BEASTE made a promising return to action at Cork after an absence since October and though he's yet to get his head in front this looks a good opportunity. Korean has been running very well over hurdles and fences which is why he's now on a high enough handicap mark while Hot Friend has never won in 13 starts over fences and looks due for some respite in the weights. The Corby Glenn is on exactly the same mark as when gaining his only success over fences at Fairyhouse last February and ran well at Downpatrick last time while the consistent but luckless Galway Legend will have needed his comeback run at Gowran last month, his first start since September, when he was in very good form.
