Verdict

SIZINGDOWNTHERHINE showed plenty of promise in two hunter chase starts since the turn of the year and can land the spoils here under Derek O'Connor. The eight-year-old can consider himself unlucky at Fairyhouse in February going down by ¾L and will appreciate the step up in trip. Macs Legend, Abbazagga and David Kelly's duel winning point-to-pointer Oscar Contender can battle for the minor honours.
