Last seen finishing ahead of the likes of A Toi Phil and the Willie Mullins-trained The Paparrazi Kid in the Grade 3 Centenary Chase at Cork in April on good to yielding ground.
Last seen in May finishing fourth of six beaten 23L behind Sandymount Duke at Punchestown. Has been largely disappointing of late but has form on heavy ground and is now just 1lb higher than last win. Unseated rider in this race last year.
Distance winner who was a below-par 12th of 28 last time out in a Leopardstown handicap chase in December. Last chase win was back in a Fairyhouse novice chase in January 2015.
Front-runner who likes to get on with things. Winner, for the second year running, here on Sunday, subsequently raised 5lb and pulled-up before two out in the Kerry National yesterday. Winner of this race last year.
Forecasts
Hidden Cyclone (5/4), Kylecrue (11/4), Val De Ferbet (3/1), Dromnea (9/1), Draycott Place (10/1)
Winner of the race 12-months ago Kylecrue will make the running here, but he may have been a little fortunate when left clear by the untimely unseat of DRAYCOTT PLACE who can make amends here despite his recent below-par performances. Val De Ferbet and the ever-popular veteran Hidden Cyclone can give the selection the most to think about.
