Beautiful Ben has won four times over jumps but doesn't arrive in the best of form and though Onlyhuman will improve for his run at Leopardstown he'll probably need much more. Fioruisce could come out best of those with experience as he wasn't given a hard time at the Curragh after meeting interference though Kevin Manning prefers the stable newcomer Gloves On, who is related to numerous winners while Ger Lyons' Cannonball is related to four winners. SHABDIZ is a half-brother to two winners and Dermot Weld's Sea The Stars colt is taken to make a successful start.
