Beckwith Star has produced two battling victories in recent weeks and though 7lb higher he's still on a lower mark than over fences. Patsio was taking on smart novices at Galway after completing a double with a handicap victory here while the consistent Coldstonesober reverts to hurdles after running over fences here on Thursday. SWANTYKAY scored at this fixture a year ago when beating Beckwith Star two lengths in receipt of 4lb. He's been chasing without much luck recently and though his yard remains out of sorts this looks a good opportunity. Do Na Paisti is inconsistent but bounced right back when runner-up to Damefirth at Kilbeggan and would be a threat with a repeat performance. Collen Beag landed a lesser grade handicap here on Friday and is obviously in good heart so is another to consider in an open handicap.
