Verdict
Visioman is a chaser nowadays but reverts to hurdles on a 24lb lower mark so has to be respected. The veteran Conright Boy has won around here and is just 2lb higher than his last victory while Light Brigade landed the odds in a Fairyhouse maiden and starts out in handicaps on a fair mark. Living's Boy An Co made much of the running when tackling 2m4f at Fairyhouse while AARONS DAY, who won this last year from 13lb lower, ran a cracking race on a return to action here last month and with that under his belt can concede weight all round. Bua Boy was in excellent form last summer and wasn't beaten far in his hat-trick attempt in a Grade 3 handicap at Listowel while You Say Nothing has to be on the shortlist having completed a double by 15 lengths in a Punchestown handicap last month.
