Nina Carberry has won this three times in the past eight years and Tooreen Legend looks certain to give her a good ride after gaining his first success on the Flat at Dundalk in March. A recent run over hurdles will have put him straight and he'll be difficult to keep out of the money. Sarah O'Brien gained her first ever victory in this a year ago and is entrusted with the ride on Egyptian Warrior, who appears to act on any ground having scored on heavy going and at Dundalk. Katie Walsh is on board Laviniad, who found 1m2f too short at Sligo, but it's her mount's stablemate SECURITY BREACH who could be good enough. He's a versatile performer who has won on the Flat and over timber on vastly different ground though he loves fast going and his overall form may just give him the edge. The lightly-raced filly Newellen has a chance at her best but would appreciate plenty of rain.
