BURNSWOOD had dropped to a very fair mark when landing a C&D handicap in November and again ran well from his revised mark at Thurles a couple of weeks later. He's in good enough form to take this under his regular pilot Joe Holly. Take A Shot is progressing nicely though he's only run on ground with plenty of give to date. Media Baron has also produced his best form in testing conditions but Cantrell is still a maiden after 33 career starts. Tequila Lord gained the only victory of his career at Clonmel last month and is probably still capable of a big run from today's mark.
