Verdict

The Joseph O'Brien yard have a 25% strike rate at this venue in the first two weeks of the year since 2016 and their representative here IRRADIATE can improve once again for her win over C&D in November off a 8lb lower mark. Lever Du Soleil finished third of 14 beaten 3½L behind the selection over C&D in November and can once again give a good account ahead of King's Vow and Bal De Rio for trainer Denis Hogan following his second of eight over a similar trip in a Limerick novice hurdle over Christmas.
  1. Irradiate
  2. Lever Du Soleil
  3. Bal De Rio
