Buachaill On Eirne can land the finale at the expense of Kilcannon Supreme and The Rocking Dock. The selection was the ready winner of a handicap at Ballinrobe last month. He had run a couple of fair races in defeat prior to that and this does look like his easiest opportunity to date so therefore he is one to stay on the right side of. Kilcannon Supreme carries a six pound penalty for his recent win at Bangor. The Bowen stable are in really good form of late also and that fact that the horse is now three wins from nine he is a horse that has to be respected. The Rocking Dock won off a mark of 109 at Aintree back in May but after falling at Market Rasen he disappointed at Southwell last time out and should now be treated with caution as a result. So for the winner we return to Buachaill On Eirne.
