This is a competitive enough handicap chase in which NET D'ECOSSE looks the one to be on. His pulling up at Leopardstown last time can be largely disregarded given the circumstances it happened in, and he is possibly the one with the best form in the book, including finishing fifth in Tea for Two's Kauto Star Chase. Emcon, who won that race at Leopardstown last time, could be the one to give him most to think about, ahead of Kayf Supreme, who should be able to overcome a disappointing run last time which looked too bad to be true.
