Spare Brakes was having only his second start since February 2018 when landing a Gowran handicap in January so the lack of a recent run shouldn't be a problem. He's equally effective over fences and likes testing ground so looks a threat to all. HAPPY JACKY has really found his form in recent weeks, completing a double in handicaps at Ballinrobe and Clonmel before a fair run on the Flat. He's probably still on a fair mark and can go in again. Whereyounow is the only course and distance winner in the line-up having carried a big weight to victory in March before completing a double at Limerick the following month. Cash Me Outside was nowhere near her best at Galway after scoring at Wexford while the consistent Wait Here can get into contention again.
