FormscanBy Donal Murphy - This looks an ultra-competitive contest and the one I'm going to take a chance on is ZEKARYA who is fitted with cheekpieces for the first time. The Denis Hogan trained grey fell two out in this race last year when looking the most likely winner. He was well beaten on his seasonal reappearance at Navan earlier this month but that effort should leave him spot on for this assignment. Mini Vic is given second preference with Danny Benson taking a valuable five pounds off. The Liz Doyle trained ten-year-old stayed on well to finish a close-up fourth at Tramore on her last start and upped in trip to three miles now she should give a good account of herself. Sarah Battle beat the smart Lite Duties over the course and distance in March and carrying just nine stone eleven (including Adam O'Neill's seven pound claim) she is another with leading claims. Eugene O'Sullivan has already had two winners at the Limerick Christmas Festival and he is represented here by A Decent Excuse. His daughter Maxine (who won aboard Cork Citizen for her father on Saturday) takes the ride on the seven-year-old gelding and he looks to have a solid each-way chance. Abolitionist won on his last start at Fairyhouse and he is another to consider along with Cappacurry Zak, Jupitor, Oscars Business and Tiger Bay Lady.
