Beaten by Mac's Legend in a point earlier in the year, but went on to win a hunter chase at Gowran Park in March and was then third at the Punchestown Festival. Dead heated in recent point and looks primed for a big run.

In-and-out performer in recent times, unseating in two of his last three starts, but winning four of his last six. Conditions no problem and very much a contender if you want to take the risk that he jumps round.

3-1 but well beaten in this race last year. Has won three points since then, but was well held behind Fenno's Storm at Punchestown in the spring. Nice enough warm-up for this in a point recently, but needs to be at his best here.
Got the better of Mac's Legend by 1L in a cracker here last year (heavy) and matched in a novices' hunter chase next time. Not as good since then, but goes well fresh and probably has place claims.
Won a maiden point at Tralee by 25L in May, but beat little there and his best efforts have been way short of what will be required here.

Made a belated debut last year, winning easily and could have had a hat-trick to his name but for falling two out in a Limerick hunter chase two on his second start. Clearly goes well when fresh and should go very well again.
Only modest form when winning a point in June, and this looks a bit too tough for her on all known form.
Won 3-4 in 2018 and would have a chance if able to get back to that sort of form, but was off for a year before being pulled up on her recent comeback, giving her a fair bit to prove now.

Forecasts

Fenno's Storm (11/8), Wrong Direction (5/2), It Came To Pass (9/2), Oscar Contender (11/2), Macs Legend (12/1), Aracaras (25/1), Top Question (40/1), Sliabh Mhuire Lass (50/1), Dubai Daisy (50/1)

Verdict

An interesting contest of its type. Fenno's Storm warmed up for this nicely and should again be very competitive, while It Came To Pass is clearly going to be tough to beat if he completes. Oscar Contender and Mac's Legend are others with some sort of chance, but the suggestion is to side with the unexposed WRONG DIRECTION, who has very few miles on the clock and has begun his career well.
  1. Wrong Direction
  2. It Came To Pass
  3. Fenno's Storm
