Verdict
See Double You is back for more having started out in points in 2008. He came close to grabbing another victory at Fairyhouse on Saturday when just failing to hold Kayf Though and is on such a lowly mark that he can't be dismissed despite his age. Another veteran, Hard Bought, has been finding the minimum trip too short and is 9lb lower than his last victory but Allduckornodinner has found the going tough since being raised 9lb for last month's course and distance victory. PERFECT LEADER is 0-25 though has only had five starts over fences, the latest when just failing to catch the in-form All The Chimneys at Clonmel. He doesn't look one to trust entirely but that's the best recent form on view. Honest Robber has won around here though that was over 3m on testing ground.
