In depth

Verdict

This probably isn't as competitive as the numbers would suggest. Credit The Giver is certain to attract support given connections while Our Manekineko has been running well at Dundalk. No Way Jack was backed into favouritism at Limerick earlier this month but had no answer to the late surge of JEALIKA. Patrick Martin's charge enjoys a 7lb pull in the weights but it may not be enough to turn the tables on Mark Fahey's mare, who looks to have improved again over the winter. Queen Zain and Sister Slew are race-fit but fully exposed.
