Verdict
A low-grade handicap with hardly anything in form though that doesn't include FIERY BROWN. Sean O'Brien's charge followed a well beaten second over 2m4f at Punchestown last month with a cracking effort at Limerick a couple of weeks later when attempting to concede 11lb to the winner. I Sea The Moon looked a certain future winner when beaten a neck here in October 2021 but didn't run again until a couple of months ago when pulled up. Banada Bridge has run poorly in two starts since finishing second over 2m4f at Fairyhouse while Mahlers Cove ran well for a long way before weakening on his handicap debut at Limerick last month. Magic Conqueror is one to note though she needs to brush up her jumping.
