Verdict

With only a couple in the race who know how to win it could be worth siding with the Jessica Harrington-trained GOLD DES BOIS. The six-year-old, winner of a point-to-point 12 months ago is clearly better than recent starts suggest and can get off the mark at the third time of asking over hurdles. Handsworth has been in rear behind the likes of Blue Sari and The Bosses Oscar since November and should find this an easier task to hit the frame along with the Henry De Bromhead-trained Golden Apples. The Denis Hogan-trained Ekanse could go well at a price.
