Verdict

GREATNESS is only a four-year-old and hasn't shown much over timber in three runs but he's now on a handicap mark and produced an improved effort on the Flat last time so is handed the vote. He's up against some in-form rivals including Noble Call, who had been threatening to win over timber before doing so at Ballinrobe for which he's been raised 7lb. Billybuster completed a double in October and has had a break since a poor run at Tramore on New Year's Day but Zane Grey could be given a chance on his victory at Wexford in July, though that came on very fast going. Vinniespride invariably goes well here and, providing the ground doesn't ease, should be respected.
