Fairyhouse Race 6 - BOYLE Sports Irish Grand National Chase (Extended Handicap Chase) (Grade 3)

British raider THE JUKEBOX KID (5) arrives in peak order after his smart G2 Reynoldstown Novices Chase success at Ascot over 4828m mid-February. Ben Jones retains the ride and dropping slightly in grade renders him a leading contender. ARGENTO BOY (3) was outclassed in the G1 Broadway Novices Chase at Cheltenham last time. This is more suitable and he can bounce back. SOLDIER IN MILAN (10) was a not disgraced fourth among G3 company at Thurles early March and remains one of the genuine dangers. C'EST TA CHANCE (8) won the aforementioned Thurles contest in style and commands plenty of respect again.

Last start finished seventh of 14 runners at Cheltenham in the G1 Broadway Novices' Chase on March 11 over 5029m, 16 len behind Kitzbuhel carrying 73kg at $101. Start before won by 2.5 len Navan on January 17 over 4828m defeating Slade Steel carrying 75.5kg at $17 in a steeplechase. Disappointing last time and happy to overlook.

Impressive in recent runs. Last outing finished third of 17 starters at Cheltenham on March 10 over 6035m, 16 len behind Holloway Queen with 72.5kg at $12. The start before that; made some head-way from midfield; finished third in a small field at Doncaster on January 23 over 3822m, slow track; 5.5 len behind Western Knight with 72kg at $2. Definite winning chance. Can return to winning form.

Racing second-up today. First-up after three months won by a neck Leopardstown in a LR on March 2 over 4325m defeating Invictus Machin with 66kg at $15 in a jumps. Previously second-up finished 11th of 12 starters at Haydock Park on December 20 over 5129m, on slow going 36 len behind Grand Geste with 71kg at $12. Inform, but this a much tougher race than last outing. Requires further improvement.

Last to post a big 5 len win. Downpatrick on March 29 over 5733m defeating Uncle Pat carrying 71kg at $8.50 in a steeplechase. Race before finished 12th of 14 runners at Punchestown in the LR on February 15 over 5532m, in the wet; 30 len behind My Immortal carrying 71kg at $13. Not sure the good recent form will stack up this time.

Resumes off a 29 day letup. Last run finished fourth of 15 runners at Naas in the LR on March 8 over 5029m, 22 len behind The Lovely Man carrying 68kg at $23. Before that pulled up at Gowran Park in the G3 on January 22 over 5029m. Find this unsuitable. Struggling for form and needs to do more.

Third-up today and placed third-up previously. First-up finished third of 23 starters at Leopardstown in the G3 Leopardstown Handicap Chase on February 1 over 4325m, slow track; 1.3 len behind Backmersackme carrying 65.5kg at $8. Second-up finished eighth of 23 runners at Cheltenham on March 12 over 5330m, 10 len behind Ask Brewster carrying 71kg at $5.50. Not going well enough. Hard to support.
