IAMAGETAWAY hasn't been seen since disappointing at Killarney in May, yet he'd previously gone close (shaped best for a long way) when third at Kilbeggan previously and returning for a new yard boasting a healthy recent strike rate with their jumpers, he could well be worth chancing to get back on track. Chase debutant Ring of Kerry and Down Around are others fancied to be thereabouts in what is a tricky affair.
