Verdict
Teddy Boy won this in 2019/20 and Stanhope scored a year ago. The former has been running well though could only finish fourth here last time when GOBI STAR was beaten half-a-length with Art Of Unity the same distance back in third. The runner-up looks the one to beat on that form though there are multiple dangers including Universally, who had Step Back In Time a couple of lengths behind when scoring at Fairyhouse. Conversant has won twice here and loves plenty of give so more rain would aid his cause.
