Reafadda has been inconsistent over timber and is penalised for his bumper victory while All Day Long followed a couple of promising efforts with a poor run at Kilbeggan. Grove Field appeared to get bogged down in heavy going at Navan after a very good run behind Follow The Sign at Fairyhouse so enters the equation while Romeo Is Bleeding definitely has the form to win this though an absence since November is a concern. KANDINSKI couldn't quite cope with Our Man Zebo when making his debut over this trip at Ballinrobe but the third has won subsequently and Robert Tyner's charge can go one better.
