EMCON went up 2lb for finishing second at Leopardstown last month but that was a better race than this and she wasn't beaten far so she can go one better. Her regular rider Jack Kennedy is claimed for Gordon Elliott's Cecil Corbett, who looks best on quicker ground, but Lisclogher Lad would have a fine chance if repeating his close second to The Paparrazi Kid at Wexford as he's surprisingly been left on the same mark. Who's That took advantage of a much lower mark over hurdles to score at Leopardstown but she's a tough and useful chaser who should give a good account again. Tony Martin has taken over Guiding George from Dan Skelton though his new acquisition hasn't run since the summer of 2015.
