Race preview
JUNOT has put together a series of solid handicap runs and a reproduction of his latest effort at Naas may be good enough. The Mick Winters-trained gelding kept on nicely into fourth beaten only about three lengths behind American Money and the fifth, Butty O Brien, gave the form a boost at Navan last Saturday. The Big Cloud has been heavily backed when placed on her latest two starts and wasn't helped by a stumble early on when third at Punchestown on New Year's Eve. Gold Haven is another strong contender having also been placed on her latest two outings including when runner-up in a 20-runner Cork handicap over this trip, while Rusheen showed much improved form when just denied by Storm Mahler on testing ground at Limerick.
