Cap D'Aubois and DE PLOTTING SHED are of similar ability over hurdles though the former hasn’t raced since January when well beaten in a beginners' chase at Fairyhouse. The latter has faced tough tasks over fences recently and fell in the Galway Plate at the start of the month. Gordon Elliott’s charge went close the last time he raced at this level and gets the nod. Pallaskenry won a maiden hurdle on his latest start and is preferred to stablemate Lion In His Heart while Ah Littleluck could go well back on a faster surface today and makes more appeal than Templemore Dream.
