Las Tunas is 2-3 around here and back on a winning mark so some improvement on recent form is anticipated. Treshnish looked a promising novice at one time but he’s not progressed, though a mark of 102 is potentially lenient. Tidal Watch has also been disappointing recently and SNOUGAR (NAP) was beaten 11 lengths when second off this mark over track and trip last time. However, the third that day has won since so that run looks better now than it did at the time. Buck's Bin's is still a maiden over fences and hasn’t raced since November and Gouet Des Bruyeres also seeks a first victory.
