Race preview
Connections go straight into handicap company with STRUCK OIL on his chase debut and he can land a moderate looking affair. He chased home Bella Union over timber at Bellewstown and that form looks good with the winner following up at Down Royal recently. Katzoff was also runner-up over hurdles last time, behind easy winner Le Diablo at Clonmel. That was an improvement on his form in recent seasons and he remains lowly rated so could prove a danger now back over fences. Just For Yuse reverts to jumps after a spin on the Flat at Sligo. He's capable of reaching the frame in this company.
