A decent prize has attracted plenty of in-form entries including Morney Wing, who will be having his first start in a handicap after a strong performance to land a Limerick beginners' chase. Leighinmohr was possibly fortunate to score at Clonmel as many of the field had soon departed but Riverside City showed that staying is his game when landing a 3m4f handicap at Downpatrick. His stablemate Make A Track has a touch of quality but is high enough in the weights so the vote goes to WESTHAVEN. Noel Meade's charge hasn't been seen since unseating his rider at Kilbeggan last summer but his earlier victory at Tipperary definitely puts him in the frame.
