Pat Fahy's Castlegrace Paddy likes to get on with things usually but may not have things his own way if Sean Flanagan decides to take Ice Cold Soul to the front in the early stages of the contest. The pace and the heavy ground may play to the strengths of the Willie Mullins-trained Bravissimo and the consistent and promising BRELADE who has been runner-up to Petit Mouchoir and Footpad this term.
