Could turn out to be a match here between Fabulous Saga and the selection ROBIN DES FORET who beat his stablemate last time out in a Limerick Listed contest and may well appreciate this step up in trip rather than Ruby Walsh's mount. The Gordon Elliott stable is in fine form at the moment and Cracking Smart can give the selection the most to think about.
