Coeur Joyeux sets the standard here and has plenty experience but his record in close finishes is off-putting and he's likely to be short enough in the betting regardless, though it will be no surprise to see him in the finish again. Given that his trainer was in fine fettle at Cork on Sunday, it's safe to assume Clonmel bumper winner COOLMEEN HILL will be ready to go first time over hurdles and he may be up to winning this. King's War has improved in this sphere in two runs this year and can threaten again now upped in trip while a better effort should be forthcoming from Harold Peto on the likely decent ground.
