Jamesie continues to climb the weights but, judged on his latest second at Galway, is still heading in the right direction. Sharisse did well to get her head in front over 6f at the Curragh last month and is effective over this trip, while it would be no surprise to see Hujaylea come back to his best here. Barack, another C&D winner, contests his first handicap since scoring over a mile here last October and has been in good form in Listed company, while Duff is another making a rare appearance at this level. Northern Rocked and Iron major have already had a profitable season but could be in the handicapper's grip now while a low draw may not be ideal for English raider Below Zero. COLLINGWOOD hasn't run a bad race this year and deserves some reward. The ground has come right again for Ted Walsh's versatile handicapper and he could be the value in a very tough handicap.
