HALE BOPP didn't enjoy the rub of the green when runner-up at Killarney so is fancied to go one better here for his in-form yard. Pearle d'Or is unexposed and not taken lightly now he steps into handicap company for the first time, while Andreas Vesalius can't be ruled out either and appeals as the pick of the remainder.
