MUBROOK can take this as may have been in need of the run on his return to jumping at Naas and never got into contention. He'll strip fitter now and will be suited by the extra half-mile. Jim Bowie scored twice in March and looked ready to regain the winning thread with a fine effort behind Kayanna's Back at Punchestown. Bale O'Shea is very consistent and produced another good run behind Dolphin Bay at Naas but Hangover, despite running off a 13lb lower mark than his chase rating, would probably prefer further. John Carr has another nice prospect in his yard in Benash, who makes his handicap debut. A heavy ground specialist, he landed a maiden at Fairyhouse in April and will be better for a recent comeback despite falling at the last.
