LAST ENCOUNTER made a very encouraging debut at Navan in December and started favourite at Naas in March but couldn't cope with the mare Tara Flow, who looked useful. He should improve again and looks the one to beat. Okotoks followed a good run over hurdles with a third place in what looked a very strong event at Fairyhouse last month and it will be a surprise if he isn't in the mix while Derek O'Connor's booking for Gordon Elliott's Tinahely runner-up Woodford Island catches the eye. Turfmans Daughter is out of a winning hurdler who also scored on the Flat as a juvenile so she's one to keep an eye on along with the filly Dixie Lee, who is by Holy Roman Emperor out of a winning miler and hurdler.
