Verdict

All four of You Can't Catch Me’s hurdling victories have come on this track but none off a mark this high and he’s been chasing this year. The Big Lense has only a won a maiden so far and needs some help from the handicapper while Castlehume has been off since August and has changed stables. Mutadaffeq has a penalty form winning Cork novice event on Saturday but still makes more appeal than Sligo fifth British Art. MEGALOMANIAC makes his handicap debut and looks fairly treated on his latest third here with Rachael Blackmore keeping faith with the Gigginstown gelding.
