Formscan By Tom Weekes - DON’T TALK will appreciate the softening ground conditions and can complete a hat-trick of recent chase wins. His form can be in-and-out but in January ran two consistently good races to win at Down Royal and Fairyhouse. Although he has been raised a career-high rating of 110, he has been placed over hurdles when rated just 2lb lower and he looks to be a better chaser. Springt De La Mare should also appreciate softening ground but has a huge weight while Solomon Lane has been running well recently but climbs 3lb in the handicap.
An extended handicap steeplechase for five years old and upwards (130 = 11st 12lbs)
Penalties - Winner of a steeplechase after calculation of the handicap shall carry 7lb extra for each steeplechase won.
