The last two winners, Hell Left Loose and Samrogue, are involved again. The former beat Teddy Boy a neck in 2021 when conceding 10lb while the latter was conceding 13lb to the same horse when beating him comfortably last year. Barnhill Rose was having her first start for new connections when scoring at Roscommon last week and a 5lb rise isn't excessive while JERED MADDOX bounced back to form in a huge field under a big weight at Cork - the latter is taken to concede weight all round here. Zig Zag Zyggy looks best of the remainder.
