CHOSEN HOUR scored very easily over a longer trip on his only visit here in January and his last two runs have been over shorter than this so he gets the vote. La Tektor has plenty of weight for what he's achieved while Sunrise Lady would have to be a real threat on the form of her victory over 2m6f here but she ran poorly on a return visit. Scully's Dream is 0-12 over jumps while Chief Of Police's only victory came over 2m1f at Limerick. Hoke Colburn would have a chance on his penultimate run on heavy ground at Clonmel but he made a couple of costly errors at Fairyhouse next time. Bitview Colin could find the ground too testing but Hilltop Supreme is on a tempting mark.
