Forecasts

Maguire's Glen (3/1), Crest (4/1), Oscar Lantern (6/1), Nine Stiches (7/1), Shake It Up (9/1), Final Gift (11/1), Curragh Na Gold (12/1), Black Zero (14/1), Toushan (14/1), Positive Approach (16/1)

Verdict

Crest is respected on handicap bow for his leading trainer and should give this a strong push having shaped well ahead of his first handicap chase outing. Black Zero needs to bounce back but, having won at Naas over shorter in January, merits respect. FINAL GIFT ran well when second at Limerick over Christmas and could take plenty beating now off the same mark with blinkers going on. Maguire's Glen was a narrow third over 2f shorter here a fortnight ago and having been denied running room briefly on the final bend, he may do better this time. 1. Final Gift 2. Maguire's Glen 3. Crest
