In depth

Verdict

Muyam Spirit has won over timber and had been going well before coming to grief at the first at Downpatrick. Storm Flight has been chasing without showing much but was in good form over hurdles in the autumn so should go well despite top weight. Fleurys Fort, seven times a winner over timber, is 2lb lower than his last victory on good ground and is greatly respected but LAUGHING TRIX can get back to winning ways. Successful over 2m6f at Downpatrick in October, she was in the front rank until fading from the last when tackling 3m1f at Ballinrobe and can make her stamina count.
