Edward O'Grady and Andrew McNamara landed this a year ago with the useful Rigour Back Bob and RULER OF ALL can emulate that success on his hurdling debut. A superbly-bred son of Sadler's Wells out of a very useful mare, he was a slow-burner on the Flat but looked promising when runner-up to Sublime Talent here in April and is with the right man to nurture his new career. Missgiloney has the best form of those with experience and she did well enough when runner-up to Shamiran at Punchestown on Saturday to suggest she will be difficult to beat. Whisky Galore has had plenty of chances though he probably found the minimum trip too short at Naas last time and is better judged on a very good effort over 2m2f at Sligo earlier. Resolute Bay won a point at Lisronagh in March and may do better when sent over fences.
