Not as consistent as in days past, won here over 1m2f in mid-March though since well held by Burn The Boats over 7f. Should give another decent account of himself now back up slightly in trip.

Not disgraced in Leopardstown handicap over 7f a week ago and has also run well enough on one previous spin around here in a maiden. Strictly has something to find on form with a few of these.

Had been knocking on the door and was getting a bit frustrating before landing 7f claimer from Elusive Approach 19 days ago. Pair look well matched again and should be in the reckoning.

Running very in three starts here this year, latest 19 days ago when close second to Burn The Boats. Hood returns here and is 2lb better off for a half-length defeat, should go close.

Modest record of one win from 18 on the AW, well held five days ago over C&D and likely to be a similar tale here.

Elusive In Paris (13/8), Burn The Boats (11/4), Hes Our Music (4/1), Nutini (4/1), Dazzle The Duel (12/1), Illusive Force (28/1)

Verdict

Hes Our Music would be a credible threat in this contest if putting his very best form forward but he isn't assured to do so and was readily held by BURN THE BOATS last time out. The selection got up close home last time to beat Elusive in Paris, who had enjoyed first run, and was doing enough at the line to suggest this extra furlong won't be an inconvenience. He's been running consistently well of late and can record a double. Elusive In Paris looks destined to give him most to worry about while Nutini looks the pick of the remaining trio and has run well on one previous trip to this venue.
