Verdict
Dream Today won this a year ago from the same mark on his only start on the track while DANDYVILLE has been here twice and won both. The latter was having his first start for Jack Davison at Naas last month and should be ready for this. Moss Tucker's two career victories have been on ground with plenty of give so more rain would be welcome while Goodnight Girl hasn't run since September, a couple of weeks after landing a Curragh handicap, and usually needs a run. Blind Beggar's only victory came on heavy ground at Catterick but he's been running well on quicker going and wasn't beaten far in a bunch finish at Cork on Wednesday. Big Gossey is back on the same mark as when successful at the Curragh in September and looks a major threat.
