Classic Concorde is a real staying type who has improved since tackling 3m on testing ground so may find some of these too quick. GLOBAL RACING scored over 3m at Punchestown and though now 11lb higher he's produced several good efforts and gets the nod in a poor-class contest. Oskar High is 1-21 over timber but has been placed in similar company and ran well after a break at Sligo last weekend. Darling Miss would have a fine chance on her third at Thurles in March but she was never travelling at Limerick last month.
