        Verdict

        Twice a winner at Dundalk, BUAITEOIR showed he was still improving when winning a hot little handicap over C&D last time. A good run from fourth-placed Wilfred Pickles in the previous race will give the form a solid look and Paul D'Arcy's charge can defy a 5lb rise. Blue Moon won twice over C&D last month but found the selection too good on his latest start. That's likely to be the case here re-opposing on the same terms, but he does have the beating on earlier form of Pegasus Again and Kilburn. The latter has since won here but has a 7lb rise in the weights to contend with.
