GRAIN DE FOLIE cost £45,000 on the back of a couple of encouraging point runs and represents a stable that can ready one for a bumper, so he makes most appeal on Rules debut. Lahinch Tree has a reasonable pedigree and represents another shrewd stable so he's regarded as a threat along with Florey Spud.
