Last year's winner Apple's Jade looked better ever when winning that Hatton's Grace at Fairyhouse on her reappearance. She scrambled to win this contest a year ago and it remains to be seen if the trip sees her to best effect. At the prices, it might be worth siding with FAUGHEEN to turn her over. He was superb at Punchestown on his only try over this trip and the Morgiana showed plenty ability, if a little less speed, remains in his armoury. A year on from his nadir at this track, he could sparkle once more. It would prove a letdown if something else wins, but Bapaume and Cracking Smart may be best-placed to take any crumbs offered down.
