Verdict
El Champo probably needs further after victories over 2m3f here and at Kilbeggan though he made all on this track and conditions will play to his strengths. BARNACULLIA has been racing on the Flat and over fences and has won around here. He reverts to timber on a 17lb lower mark than fences so looks the one to beat. Maidenstreetprince has some smart form though makes his handicap debut with a big weight but another handicap debutant, Canal End, looks a nice prospect having progressed with every run last term. Ladybank was highly tried after dead-heating for a Punchestown maiden while Ted Hastings won five races last year and is fit from the Flat.
