Part Time Farmer is having his first start since a fine debut on heavy ground at Punchestown in February but his stable in in excellent form. Shakespeare's Word led at halfway and was only headed in the closing stages over the track and trip earlier this month so looks certain to go well but Inforapenny will need to improve from his run at Listowel. BLAZING KHAL couldn't quite concede Lunar Display 7lb at Leopardstown in March with an odds-on chance back in third but can go one better though Benbulben Boy is a newcomer to note from the Gordon Elliott yard.
