Verdict

Spacious Sky will probably attract support despite an absence since October as he's on an attractive mark, though a career strike-rate of 2-35 is off-putting. The four-year-old Walkabout has been thrust into an all-aged event for his handicap debut after showing much-improved form to land a poor Cork maiden but this is much tougher. ALL THE CHIMNEYS gained his first career victory at Cork last month where he battled back on the run-in to regain the lead close home. His stamina should again come into play on this very stiff track and he can complete a quick double. Admiral Brian comfortably landed a course and distance handicap before finding 2m4f stretching his stamina on a return visit so should get into the frame. Caridadi has some fair form, though on quicker ground than this.
