MISS CUNNING comes here in top form and is able to race off the same mark as when an excellent second at Limerick so is fancied to add to his Listowel success. Beer With The Boys is a long time without a win but still feared most on the back of his good Tipperary second with South East Star appealing as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
