Verdict

This looks tricky but the veteran DUFF is looking on a fair mark nowadays and last month's close third to Lily's Angel in a very tough handicap at Lepardstown showed that he was no back-number and he scored on this track a year ago from a 10lb higher mark. He's handed the vote over Russian Soul, who was just behind him at Leopardstown and has since won a strong handicap over a mile here for which he gets a massive 10lb rise. Muck 'N' Brass couldn't handle Group 3 company last time and though he won over a mile here in January his victory in August came over 1m3f so this looks on the short side. Flic Flac dead-heated for this last year and is 1lb better off, though he is another who finished behind the selection last time, but Elusive Ridge can go well despite a big weight as he's won five times at the track.
