ALL THE CHIMNEYS had been in excellent form over hurdles before reverting to fences and scoring at Clonmel where he had a bit in hand. A 5lb rise is unlikely to prevent another big effort so he gets the vote. Dakota Moirette showed a little bit more on just his fourth start over fences at Naas and though looking high enough in the weights on what he's achieved he's only a six-year-old so there's still plenty of time. Crazywork De Vassy was on the upgrade when last seen in November 2017 when he scored at Down Royal though the absence is a concern but Dylrow came here last week and recorded a comfortable victory over slightly shorter and wouldn't need much more to get into contention. D'bru Na Boinne has done well since joining Ross O'Sullivan, scoring over slightly further at Thurles and caught right on the line by Crazyheart at Tramore so another big run is anticipated.
