BELGOPRINCE returns to this code on a handy mark and is fit from a recent spin over hurdles, so he's put forward as the answer. Slieve Bearnagh left the impression he should have finished much closer at Leopardstown and is one to bear in mind, as is Mokhles following a good second over C&D recently.
