Verdict

Last year’s winner Fact Of The Matter has to be respected returning off the same mark but he ran poorly here over hurdles last time his second start back from a wind op with blinkers with blinkers now on for the first-time. Souriyan for all his good form over fences and that of his stable here has his quirks as does Kilfinichen Bay and neither are reliable sorts. SHAKE IT UP has always looked at home around here over fences and he’s the suggestion to take this and add another C&D win to his form figures. Lofgren is seen as a danger given his sound run last time at Bangor where he stuck on well having bumped into a well handicapped one from the Skelton yard.
