A low-grade handicap in which point-to-point winner SAIGHEADA BEAGA will be fancied after producing his best efforts under Rules earlier this year. Sweet Maria is still a maiden after 13 career starts and has better form over hurdles but Banna Beach will be a real threat if ready after a break as he will love the fast ground. Robert Tyner does very well with ex point-to-pointers and Ballylibert, who had some reasonable form over hurdles last year, arrives on the back of a very easy victory at Dawstown.
