In depth

Verdict

SWING PATTERN should get off the mark here though his detractors will point to a wayward performance behind Ancient Kingdom at Cork last time where he ran very wide on the turn for home and drifted in the straight. Providing he stays on an even keel this looks well within his capabilities. Astrakham should give another good account of herself after a couple of fine efforts in handicaps and she ran reasonably well here at this time last year. Hot Sand is well exposed after a dozen starts but he goes well on the surface and shouldn't be dismissed along with Sahaayeb, who made a promising debut at Leopardstown last October and hasn't been seen since. Bosphorus Queen has an even longer absence to overcome having failed to reappear after a very good run behind Famous Warrior at Fairyhouse last July.
