Treo Eile has had two attempts at winning this and been well beaten in both. But he's continued in top form between the flags and the race doesn't look as strong this time so he should get competitive. ENNISKILLEN, runner-up a year ago and also in a similar race later in the meeting, scored here under Jamie Codd in February and should go one better than last year. Enda Bolger has an enviable record in these races and the presence of Derek O'Connor on the lightly-raced youngster Equal Status suggests the trainer means business while Need To Know has managed to win nine times between the flags, though was behind the selection in this a year ago.
