Verdict
No recent winning form on offer but a chance is taken EASY BOY stays this longer trip having won at Dundalk in December and going close again over a mile at the latter track on his latest start. There was little between third-placed Mystery Gal and Nulife over a longer distance at Limerick last time when Rockview Emperor was well beaten while Belclare Boy has been hurdling without success since placing off a higher mark at Gowran in September.
