A strong Irish representation, with CHART TOPPER taken to build on his promising efforts in competitive events at the Punchestown and Galway Festivals. Gordon Elliott's Winning Smut won a big-field listed handicap at Galway and is feared most with this step up to 3m promising to play to his strengths. Quantum Quest and Chance Another One also arrive with progressive profiles. Long Draw may prove best of the British.
