KAPITALISTE (NAP) has yet to win a race and had no answer to Powerstown Park at Exeter earlier this month but the winner has since completed a hat-trick with wide-margin victories so the form looks good enough for this. Bring The Bacon makes his handicap debut but was beaten a long way here in January while it's three years since Ballycrystal won a race though he didn't run badly in a jumpers' bumper at Newcastle last time. Made For You has disappointed since scoring at Musselburgh last February though has been running over much further on testing ground. Lucky Icon looked a cracking acquisition for Philip Kirby after landing a lucrative Galway handicap in 2019 but has been very disappointing and has dropped 30lb in the ratings.
