Verdict
TRY IT SOMETIME had been threatening to win a race before landing a handicap over this course and distance last month for which he was raised 7lb. He was in touch for much of the way when tried over 3m at Clonmel but weakened quickly so a return to this trip can bring about another victory. Royal Chief won a point-to-point on good ground in December and it was similar going when he made all and just held on at Downpatrick three weeks ago. He's probably capable of better and looks a big threat. He has little to fear from Hold The Fire on that latest run but top weight shouldn't prevent Behemoth going well as he won a point-to-point on his debut last year and has been confined to the minimum trip over timber so far. Baidin Fheilimi has been out of form but would have a fine chance if returning to the sort of form that saw her score twice in August.
