CONRIGHT BOY can bounce back to form here following a faltering effort at Fairyhouse in January. The 11-year-old who was found to be clinically abnormal post race, has been given enough time to recover to give a good account of himself ahead of The Long Mile who can emerge as the biggest danger in this contest. Rock On Aussie and Fivecardstud can challenge for minor honours.
