Kitten Rock has won twice over hurdles around here and has generally competed at a higher level over fences. BLACK SAMURAI (NAP) has really found his form in recent weeks, following a comfortable victory over 2m3f here with an even better performance at Wexford.

Hell On Earth has had ten starts over fences and never won while Four Country Roads has only won between the flags, a remark that also applies to My First Symphony, who was beaten a long way into second at Wexford when Olive D'Haguenet was just behind.
