Verdict

BURRU can boast a pretty good record when fresh and back with his previous stable and figuring on a handy mark, he could be the answer to this open handicap. My Gaffer won this race a year ago and a recent Clonmel win confirms he's in excellent order, while Maxios Prime is dangerous at the foot of the weights with this step up in trip expected to suit.
