This promises to be an intriguing race tactically, with Acapella Bourgeois set to employ his usual front running tactics. They worked at Navan in February as he slipped a sleeping field but his enthusiasm surely undermined his hopes last time in the RSA as he fought with Might Bite. It would prove folly should he be given too much rope by his rivals here. The form horse is surely Grade One winner DISKO, who followed up his Leopardstown success with an acceptable run behind Yorkhill last month in the Cotswolds. Going back is distance, he is the one to beat. Anibale Fly and A Genie In Abottle, closely matched on their previous meeting, may be the best of the remainder.
