Verdict

Annacarton won this last year but hasn't been in the best of form between the flags this winter and ran an ordinary race on his return to Rules at Cork last week. He should be thereabouts again but may find SUPREME DOC too strong. A dual point-to-point winner, he's always at his best on quick ground so with conditions likely to be in his favour he's taken to add to his hunter chase victory at Downpatrick last month. Foritsa is generally consistent though she was beaten a long way when runner-up at Balyragget last time but Rivazza can't have been right when pulled up last time as he had earlier beaten the consistent Fastey in good style at Kilsheelan.
