This contest can go the way of ISLAND MASTER winner over C&D on sole attempt over the combination last month off a 5lb lower mark. The Turtle Island gelding is in good form this term and can get the better of his nearest rivals, the Denis Hogan pair Mister Butler, winner at Wexford on latest start and Licklighter winner last time out over the larger obstacles last month. Note should be taken of the J P McManus trio, Thatbeatsbanagher, Everlastingpromise and the reserve, Blue Templar.
