Verdict
Kavanaghs Corner is now a teenager but continues to run well at this sort of level. However, he was receiving 5lb when beaten just over a length by WISHMOOR at Limerick in December and has to give weight to Jonny Levins' charge here. Nobody Home also finished in front of him when they were placed at Fairyhouse and Edward Cawley's charge has a definite chance in this grade. My Manekineko pops up every now and then and isn't finished yet judging by a narrow defeat in a Limerick claiming hurdle while Hilltop Supreme was in brilliant form over timber at this time a year ago when winning four times.
