Shorecliffe King finished runner-up three times around this time a year ago and will be better for a recent run at Navan. Get In There, a shock winner at Limerick in January, didn't get anywhere near that level of form at Thurles last month from her new handicap mark. Kellystown Jack ran very well over the C&D last month but was beaten when falling at Downpatrick a month later. Grove Dale produced a much-improved effort when runner-up to Cantrell in a huge field at Naas last week and though that was over two miles a repeat performance should ensure another big run. However, winning point-to-pointer DUNROE BOY, who was noted staying on at the finish, will be much better suited by today's extra half-mile and is given the nod to gain his first success under Rules.
