Won a Sligo beginners chase in September, but fell on last chase start at Punchestown, but looks in the grip of the handicapper.

Better chaser than hurdler. Last seen over the larger obstacles when winning a Punchestown handicap in June 2016. Will be difficult racing off a 9lb higher mark.

From top stable and must be respected on handicap chase debut, despite being well beaten on four chase starts.

Chase veteran of 21 races with two wins, well beaten and no impression last time out in Kilbeggan handicap chase. Could be interesting now 2lb lower than last winning mark.

Well backed and kept on well to assert close home, beating nine rivals in Sligo handicap chase earlier this month over an extended 2m1f on yielding to soft ground. Up 8lb for his efforts.

Forecasts

Neddyvaughan (5/2), Flaviana (11/4), Rocky Court (4/1), Tulpar (4/1), Tisamystery (5/1), My Painter (8/1), Kemboy (10/1), Chief Of Panama (12/1), Vinnie Luck (12/1)

Verdict

Kemboy will possibly show his usual front-running tactics in the early stages, with Rocky Court and Tulpar in behind. While Neddyvaughan and Flavia will, quite rightly, have their supporters, a chance can be taken with MY PAINTER, who has a significant jockey booking on handicap debut.
  1. My Painter
  2. Neddyvaughan
  3. Flaviana
