JOHANNISBERGER has been given a couple of months to get over being pulled up at Punchestown and would have few problems winning this on his earlier form over fences. He's taken to gain his first success as Cadspeed has had trouble with his jumping lately having made a bright start over the larger obstacles. Golden Ticket has been going well over hurdles and his pedigree suggests he can do well over fences while Hidden Future has shown some ability and may prove best of the remainder.
