FOLLOW THE CROWD was in the lead when falling at the last at Wexford then beat subsequent winner Krujers Girl over this trip at Down Royal. Both starts were over fences and he's 14lb lower back over timber so looks the one to beat. Arrycan has been in good form and was challenging when unseating three out at Gowran while Rebellious Gale would have a chance on his victory at Limerick in May. Maxxum has moved to Gordon Elliott and could be on a fair mark while Ocojohn has been improving over timber. Watch for any market move for Ithaka, who caught the eye of the stewards at Limerick in July then found two miles too short at Kilbeggan.
