Arctic Mick has fallen in two of his six starts over fences but jumped better when sent to Newcastle last time. Clare Gent should be winning soon judged on his latest effort behind Burnt Oil Babe at Tramore and holds Noble Commander on a line through the winner. However, just in front that day was the consistent ISOURBELL, who jumps and stays well and looks the safest option in a tight handicap. Supreme Builder looks high enough in the weights on what he's achieved over fences while Ard Agus Fada, a winner at Gowran a year ago, has been unable to cope with the weight rise subsequently. The Corby Glenn is 9lb higher than when scoring at Fairyhouse last February but shaped nicely at Down Royal last time and must be a threat.
