An ultra-competitive early season handicap in which it could pay to side with SHAMIYAN, who stepped up markedly from his handicap debut when getting off the mark at Dundalk in November and Mick Halford's unexposed 5-y-o is taken to double his tally back on the turf. Bring Us Paradise, Forbearance, Blyton and Pempie are a handful of potential dangers.
