Roi De Dubai looked to have a fair chance at Wexford yesterday and seems unlikely to run here. DEFINITE PLAN, lightly-raced over timber but a winner at Downpatrick, took a while to get the hang of jumping fences here last month but stayed on nicely and can go one better. Premium Package was behind and looks held but Whirling Dervish, a dual winner on the Flat and over hurdles, looks a nice prospect for chasing and could provide the main threat if taking to fences.
