Verdict

COUGAR looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so Aidan O'Brien's good Navan third is fancied to open his account with this step up in trip also a positive. Darraby is not taken lightly despite taking a hike in the weights for his taking Roscommon victory, with handicap-debutant Shajak another who needs factoring in.
