Rock On Barney will almost start favourite for this having finished second three times in a row on similar going. The worries are a 3lb higher mark and a career record which reads 0-12, though this is not a race overloaded with previous winners. Fiesole has won on the Flat but was behind Rock On Barney in an amateur riders’ race at Clonmel last time. THE IRRITATOR hasn’t many miles on the clock and was closing on the leaders when falling two out at Downpatrick on October. He has been absent since but is weighted to play a part in proceedings if fully wound up. Coho could also run well at decent odds while The Church Gate and Rock On Lilly were both placed last time.
