In depth
Verdict
Andreo Bambaleo was raised 6lb after winning at Market Rasen and may not be suited by the drop in distance. Cool Baranca is still on a decent mark, despite a win at Ayr in April, while Glencree has been knocking on the door and Latin Connection can't be ignored. The four-year-old Busted Tycoon also catches the eye at the foot of the weights after springing a surprise at Tramore but the vote goes to KNOCKLAYDE VIC. After a promising reappearance at Fairyhouse, he was very well backed in a competitive handicap at Punchestown last month. Having travelled strongly, he couldn't quicken approaching the last so the drop in distance here may well be in his favour.
