Verdict

The vote goes to SLIEVE BEARNAGH, who was successful over this C&D in October and has aquitted himself well in big-field handicaps at the Curragh an Navan since returning to action last month. Crystal Pool makes each-way appeal on the back of a decent effort at Killarney, while a case can also be made for Virtual Hug.
