EMMERDALE NOEL (6) boasts a consistent overall record including five wins from 19 starts, but missed the frame latest when sixth (30.21) over 480m at this track. Performs well off this trap. Drawn thw widesat and with clear running expected to go close. MAXI TWIST (1) failed to feature last start after missing the jump at this track, but prior to that won by 2 lengths at this track (30.00) beating Liffeyside Midi in an A6 on January 23. Likely to play a prominent role. LAHINCH AYDA (2) trailed the lead and fought on well to be beaten 7 lengths into third (29.95) at this track in an A6 over 480m. Winning chance. CRACKON ANGIE (5) must be respected despite an unplaced effort here most recently.
