Peregrine Run and Product Of Love go well here and Kilcarry Bridge won this last year when rated 2lb higher. Shanpallas is worth a market check in a wide-open contest and Monbeg Chit Chat, one of three Henry De Bromhead runners, is on a hat-trick. Stablemate Alisier D'Irlande has had a break but drops in grade while a case can be made for Bel Ami De Sivola and Steel Wave. GRAND PARTNER lurks near the foot of the handicap on a dangerous mark following a fair run on the Flat earlier this month. He’s unexposed over the larger obstacles and rated much higher over hurdles.
