Verdict
This is a distinctly moderate affair as most of these would struggle to win a seller. Craig Nichol rode last year's winner for Lucinda Russell and they team up again with MOMKINZAIN, who beat Solway Dandy and Early Applause when successful on a couple of occasion here last summer. He returns from a break but that shouldn't be a problem and this is his time of year. The four-year-old Baraboy should be thereabouts if reproducing his best form while Noel Kelly sends over Ivanka who was third at Sligo around this time last year. Endeavor has never won off a mark this high over hurdles.
