Verdict
One In A Milan is the only C&D winner here having landed a maiden in November and he was probably unlucky not to land a handicap at Limerick last time. There's not much between him and Beckett Rock on that run and both can go well here. Castle Wings has got over his jumping problems and has been in cracking form though he starts off in handicaps off a high enough mark. Ros Brin won two handicaps in very heavy ground and the assessor seems to have hold of him but Milano Magic is at the right end of the weights and must be considered. OUR VICTORIA has been chasing with limited success but she's a useful performer over timber at her best and looks well enough handicapped to take this.
