One Of Three had been in fine form over 7f before tackling a furlong shorter at Naas and finishing around seven lengths behind Solent Ridge, who won impressively. The latter is on a 10lbs higher mark and has plenty to do but is likely to get competitive again. Slapper looks in the grip of the handicapper after his good form earlier in the season HELLO MAN hasn't had much racing since scoring at Navan a year ago and was having his first start since September when staying on to finish five lengths behind Patrickswell over the minimum trip at Down Royal. He should be fit enough for this and can get back to winning ways. Angelina Coralina looks a threat from her lowly spot in the handicap as she ran quite well behind Bold Thady Quill at Fairyhouse last time while Gaelic Revival is also well enough weighted to get involved.
