JACK SLADE (NAP), who won at this fixture a year ago, scored over fences at Downpatrick in facile fashion and back over timber his rating of 98 looks very lenient so he can complete a double. Snugsborough Benny scored with a bit in hand at Tipperary in May so a 9lb rise shouldn't prevent another big effort. War Of The Pennys has won off a higher mark in the past and returned to form at Clonmel but Rolling Revenge, who won twice over hurdles last summer, hasn't run since his chasing debut in November.
