Friary Gold stopped as if shot when favourite at Tramore last month so has a bit to prove now. Hoke Colburn will probably need this and Weihnachts also lacks a recent run so this looks a good opportunity for BENEFIT RUN to build on a promising reappearance over hurdles at Sligo given he won over the larger obstacles over this trip at Thurles last season. Any market support for Mr Jacaranda should be noted given he made late headway at Tramore when ahead of Captain Cobajay.
