Appletreemagic gained a C&D success in April but is now a massive 17lbs higher and this is a tough task. KING OF ARAN has been heavily supported on a couple of occasions recently and has shown enough ability to suggest he can take this ordinary contest in which many of his rivals are badly out of sorts. Vampire Blues ran a shocker at Sligo last time after her victory at Down Royal and may not be straightforward while Accompanist is capable of winning again at this track but probably not over a trip way short of his best.
