Verdict

FOUNTAIN HOUSE is a tricky one to assess but is potentially thrown-in on the form of his cross-country wins at the Punchestown Festival and looks worth chancing switched back to a regulation chase. Luimneach arrives in top form and tanked through the race when winning at Gowran so rates the main threat despite a 9 lb rise, while Watch The Weather can usually be relied upon to give his running and is respected with Jack Kennedy returning to the saddle.
