Verdict
So Sensible doesn't win very often and was receiving lumps of weight from the winner when runner-up at the Curragh. It was very fast going when Khabaray won at the last meeting but he carried a big weight and, if acting in these conditions, would be a threat to all despite a 7lb rise. KORBOUS has won around here and has only been put up 1lb for a narrow defeat on the track a month ago so he looks the one to be on for Oisin Orr, who has only ridden him once when successful at Cork. Rummaging hasn't won for almost two years but looked on the way back to his best at Cork last time so finds a place on the short-list.
