Jocular started off well enough last season but hasn't been seen since May and he's never run on fast going. Tetraites gradually improved in his first campaign and wasn't beaten far in a big field at Leopardstown in October. Torpedo Alley has run three times on Polytrack and once on heavy ground at Gowran but should handle this going and will make a bold bid from the front. CONGRESSMAN is bred for this trip so he will have found 6f on heavy going against him on his debut at the Curragh last month. He'll have come on a bundle for the experience and gets the vote in a moderate maiden. John Oxx is back among the winners and his newcomer Ripples Effect, a 340,000gns son of Sea The Stars, makes a belated racecourse debut.
