Verdict

Gendarme hasn't won since completing a double in the summer of last year and is 11lb higher but his stable know how to get one ready and he could still be well handicapped on 99. Our Bobby has failed to finish in three of his last seven but he's another looking well treated if managing to get round without mishap and would have been in contention at Wexford but for falling at the last. BOGHLONE HONEY was well supported for her reappearance at Sligo last month and was a very convincing winner. She unseated at the first on her chasing debut at Naas earlier this month but back over timber can get back on the winning trail. Oskar High completed a double in September but is looking a few pounds high as a consequence.
