You could nominate several in this and still miss the target. Willie Mullins runs four with Stratum and Jazzaway making most appeal, though My Sister Sarah ran well for the yard on the Flat earlier in the week. Litterale Ci ran a fine race in that contest for Harry Fry when third and the yard have another live contender here with recent easy Newton Abbot scorer, Black Mischief. A rare British raid is completed by Pagero, also weighted to give a decent account. Place Des Vosges is consistent and fairly treated but, at the likely odds, DECOR IRLANDAIS is a speculative suggestion. He needs to arrive late on the scene off a decent gallop and this should be run a good pace.
