Formscan By Alan Magee - MUST GO NOW gets the vote for race sponsor Eddie Cawley. The selection won in good style over course and distance on New Year’s Day and didn’t enjoy the clearest of runs on his only subsequent start when finishing well into third behind Cave Court over a shorter trip at Naas. Crescent Moon was very impressive over course and distance a fortnight ago but has been given a 14lb hike by the handicapper, while others to consider include UK raider Ben Solo and the progressive Collaborative. Any market move for Harbour Highway would be significant.

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards that have not won a hurdle race before 5th May 2024 (120 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a hurdle race after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each hurdle race won.
