Verdict
LEIBNIZ makes a quick reappearance under a penalty after a convincing success at Down Royal on Friday where he thrived on the fast ground. He looks capable of completing a quick double in a race that doesn't look up to much. Diamondgeezer Luke has a career losing run of 40 to overcome though he's done better over hurdles and has gone close on a couple of occasions. Mon Carlos is also a maiden but ran well at Clonmel last time so can challenge for a place while winning point-to-pointer Dawn Flyer has some reasonable form over hurdles, though an absence since December is a concern.
