Borolee has been struggling at the weights since landing a Clonmel handicap in December and may be a few pounds high at present. Oscar Dubh has been in good form but his victory at Wexford in March was his first over jumps in 33 starts and he's been raised 6lbs. AEVAL is stil a maiden over fences but he's run well on several occasions and found the heavy going very much against him here when last seen in November. The front-running Dream Honours has been fading when attempting longer trips so should be able to hang on a little longer and possibly reach a place.
