4/1
Was trying to make most when falling five out last time as the favourite, having shown potential at Limerick prior to that. Probably has the ability to go well from this initial mark, but needs a clear round.

In-and-out performer over fences of late. Could give him a chance on his best form, but not easy to be confident he will produce that.

3/1
Won a soft ground Tramore novices' chase in January (2m). Unseated early last time, but feasibly treated here and should be capable of being very competitive.

5/4
Hasn't been showing much over fences, with the exception of his debut at Tipperary in 2016. Hard to fancy on his first run since last May, but money for him would be interesting.

25/1
Won a Punchestown maiden hurdle in 2015, but has failed to show much for almost two years. Cheekpieces go on here, but others preferred.

Moderate performer over both hurdles and fences and impossible to fancy from 3lb 'wrong'.

Forecasts

Fairly Legal (5/4), Crazyheart (3/1), Reach Up (4/1), Disco Musik (4/1), Pakman (16/1), My Manekineko (25/1), Marakoush (25/1)

Verdict

Moderate fayre here and it looks a good opportunity for CRAZYHEART to add a second win in as many months, after a spill last time. Reach Up in a handicapper newcomer who could give the selection a race, but there is little else to set the pulse racing, so money for Fairly Legal may prove significant.
