Verdict

A host in with chances but it could pay to side with GUNSIGHT, who shaped better than the bare result when sixth at Sligo just over a fortnight ago and Michael O'Meara's 4-y-o can open his account at the expense of Alma Libre, who needs to leave a rare-poor effort behind at the Curragh when last seen 9 months ago but returns on a handy mark. Encosta and Mr Mills are another couple to consider, too.
