This can go the useful front-running mare MARY FRANCES, a C&D winner in the past who was back to winning ways in a competitive handicap at Punchestown last time and has a good chance on that form. Her young rider won a top handicap chase at Naas earlier this month and this mare makes plenty of appeal. Jetz ran very well last time when second at Leopardstown and stays this longer trip, so he is a respected main danger. Karl Der Grosse may still be open to improvement for Willie Mullins and cannot be discounted despite a disappointing run here last time, 13 months ago.
