Our Brian won this in 2019 but wasn't in that sort of form last summer. THEFAITHFULINDIAN (NAP), three times a winner on the Flat, just failed to hold the late thrust of Lucy Van Pelt at Punchestown and looks a more reliable prospect than Drumbaragh. The latter gained a shock victory by 12 lengths at Down Royal when handed a soft lead and a 13lb rise could be enough to halt her progress. Winning bumper Kinnegad Lad has joined Gordon Elliott and is expected to improve.
