GALWAY JACK is a tough cookie at this level and, having enjoyed a taste of these fences last time out, he may find things more to his liking in this weaker looking event.. Open Hearted is an obvious threat and it's quite possible that he will revel in this grade of competition, so he has to merit respect. While Keep On Track, who was a well beaten third in this race last year, can pick up the pieces as the best of the rest.
