Ballyfinboy won this in 2016 and I'm An Izz Wizz a year later. The former is very well handicapped but has looked a light of other days. Shes Flat Tothemat looked as though she needed further than this when beaten 6l behind Canadian Steel over 2m5f at Tramore and the winner, who won over 2m7f here earlier, may also prefer further. This is the correct trip for Allduckornodinner and Gavin Cromwell's charge, a winner over hurdles last month, finished runner-up here the last time he ran over fences so should get into the frame. ALLIED VICTORY is 1-23 over fences but almost doubled his tally at Clonmel earlier this month. That was over a trip too short and on his return from a long break so he's handed the vote.
