Race Tip

Aidan O'Brien took this twelve months ago with a subsequent multiple G1 winner and his entry MILITARY (1) remains the most logical selection this time. He went well when third attempting the G3 Killavullan Stakes at Leopardstown over 7f in October and can make a winning handicap debut. Fellow handicap newcomer GUILDENSTERN (3) could give a good account having proved he handles testing ground winning a 7f Leopardstown maiden last season. MY MATE ALFIE (2) shaped well when fifth in a valuable sales event at Naas on last outing as a juvenile and must enter calculations alongside SLUICE (7).
