After a couple of promising runs over fences last summer, Konitho has disappointed but his yard remains in outstanding form. ASK CORY, a winner over this trip at Killarney in October, reappeared after a break to gain a battling success over this course and distance last month and a 7lb rise looks manageable. Stable companion Stacks Mountain has been racing in much better company since landing a beginners' chase at Listowel but winning bumper Momus has never won over jumps. Twilight Girl has run her best races on testing ground.
