A wide-open finale in which PENNY JAR gets the nod to defy the handicapper again and complete a hat-trick. Gavin Cromwell's Clear The Clouds showed promise when stepped up in trip at Clonmel and could have more to offer going over even further this time so he heads the many possible dangers. Anyonecanhaveitall is another to consider on the back of a good run at Tramore, while there are a few possible improvers among the handicap newcomers, with Verdant Place one who needs a betting check.
