A very tough finale for punters to unravel. LATE DEBATE went up 13lb for an easy success over 1m2f at Navan but has continued to run well over that trip and should be suited by returning to a mile with some cut in the ground. He's given the nod though there are numerous dangers including Words Of Wisdom, who is improving fast and won very nicely over the trip at Leopardstown. Reasons Unknown started favourite to lose his maiden tag at Navan but couldn't quite hold off Footcycle. He's probably capable of better and is a live threat as is Joe Eile, who was staying on over 7f here on his reappearance and should again take care of fourth-placed Glanusk. Flavia Tatiana had looked ready to win soon when placed in two Navan handicaps but ran very poorly here last time.
