Kalann's last victory was over the track and trip almost two years ago though he looked on the way back at Leopardstown earlier this month. Asian Wing is best on Polytrack while Asbury Boss appeared to find the track and trip too hot to handle last month. Dual hurdles winner Skilled ran his best race on the Flat at Leopardstown last time though could have done without a 6lb rise so a chance is taken with the veteran HIDDEN UNIVERSE, who is much better than these at his best and should be better for his recent run at Fairyhouse, his first since October 2014.
