In depth

Verdict

Dubai Devils has a good record around here and would be a threat if the going turned testing. Super Citizen stepped out of hunter chases to easily land a Leopardstown handicap for the O'Sullivans and still looks on a fair mark while Young Dev has been running well over hurdles and battled to victory over fences at Navan last month when his rider lost his irons. Gavin Cromwell has two entries with the experienced Lisa O'Neill on board Spades Are Trumps, who will find this less daunting than the Grade B handicap he ran in at Navan last time. Emma Twomey was on board when KAVANAGHS CORNER scored over 2m5f here in November and when just failing over this trip at Down Royal and Henry De Bromhead's veteran can go in again
