Verdict
Old-timer ATHOLLBLAIR BOY is holding his form pretty well this season and would be giving weight to all his rivals if this was a handicap. Blackcurrent only just failed in a similar event over C&D last time so rates the main threat, with Lezardrieux also worth a mention given his record here.
