EX PATRIOT was anything but disgraced in the Triumph Hurdle last month and can grab this contest as compensation for losing a Grade Three over C&D having passed the post first in February. He effectively stepped up on that effort in the Triumph and looks one to stay on the right side of now. The filly Dinaria Des Obeaux was the beneficiary of his misfortune last time and she should bounce back from a below par effort in the Cotswolds. British raider Project Bluebook is very much one to note coming here while French import Orion D'aubrelle is noted for Walsh and Mullins have easily scored on his final start in his native land. Dandy Mag, also out of the Closutton team, may have more to say after finding the Triumph a bit much last time out.
