Having won this two years ago and then going close last year Dysios is certainly one for the shortlist but the suggestion is LANDOFHOPEANDGLORY. A Group 2 runner-up on the Flat, the son of Galileo never really fufilled his potential over hurdles but has looked much more promising over fences so far including when winning a Grade 3 at Roscommon last time. This is his handicap chase debut but he should be on a workable mark and may well outclass these. Blast Of Koeman looks on a fair mark after winning in novice company at Fairyhouse last time and is another to consider.
