Olifan D'Oudairies is having his first start for Gordon Elliott and is at the right end of the handicap to make his mark. Noble Commander did very well to beat Francis Du Mesnil at Limerick and ran very well over three miles there last time so he's on the short-list as is the useful Bremen, whose run over hurdles at Cork last month will have put him right for this. FUTURE ALL STAR landed a little race at Clonmel in very good style and though 7lb higher he was having only his fifth start over fences and looks capable of progressing enough to take this. Lets Go Sunshine was having his first start since October over a trip too far here earlier this month and should be ready to run a big race here.
