In the last 21 days, there have been six beginners chase contests in Ireland, three of which have been won by Gordon Elliott, hence it is hard to see his BALLELA BOY, not winning here, despite finishing behind Don't Tell No One, last time out. He will be up with the pace with the likes of Mick Spadoun and Miss Eyecatcher, so will take all the beating from his in-race position.
