Sea Master has never won a race in 35 starts despite running some fine races in defeat. Breffni Gael is 7lb higher than when scoring at Tramore but that's unlikely to prevent another big effort though runner-up Code Dancer should get much closer on the revised terms. EASY VIC has made great strides over the past few weeks and was disqualified after finishing first past the post over hurdles at Limerick last month. He's been disappointing subsequently but is still looking very well treated over fences and can take this for Tony Martin. Fitzgutentyte hasn't shown much over fences but enters the fray in excellent shape over hurdles and looks well handicapped.
