Don't Tell No One was a close third in this race last year for Dermot Weld but hasn't raced since, so his fitness must be taken on trust as he reappears for John Kiely. Oathkeeper and A Rated are interesting on their chasing debut's but preference is for the improving FLY RORY FLY who shaped like a future winner when beating everything bar the classy Rathvinden at Wexford last time.
