Career best when easily winning 12-runner handicap chase at Navan (16f, heavy, 6/1) 21 days ago. Improving all the time recently so he's not taken lightly despite a 7 lb weights rise.

Forecasts

Battle Of Ridgeway (9/4), Mclaurey (3/1), Park That (6/1), Win Some Lose Some (7/1), Golden Joy (7/1), Rockbrook (8/1), Mount Frisco (8/1), Champagne Mahler (12/1), Quornofamonday (50/1), Ferdia (100/1)

Verdict

MCLAUREY caught the eye running on late into third at Fairyhouse last time and gets a confident vote off an attractive-looking mark now stepping into handicap company. Facile Navan winner Battle Of Ridgeway should ensure Emmet Mullins' likely improver doesn't have things all his own way though, while in-form duo Mount Frisco and Rockbrook can also play a part. Golden Joy completes the shortlist.
