Elite Legion disappointed on his final start last season so has a bit to prove in this off top weight but Paradiso has been racing over longer trips this year so could go well back over 7f. Limerick third Thaleeq may have more to offer in first-time cheekpieces but KOKURA also gets the aids for the first time and makes more appeal with Ben Coen taking off 3lb. Johnny Murtagh’s gelding, a winner on the all-weather, has only run twice on Turf and kept on once headed last time at Naas. Soaring Monarch also has a squeak while Glow Worm makes each-way appeal further down the handicap.
