Winning point-to-pointer Mirador Del Conde will have found 2m1f much too short at Galway last time but he battled all the way to the line and eventually got up close home. He's progressing nicely and can get into the frame here. This will take some getting but the trip holds no fears for Droim Toll, who won over 3m5f here on New Year's Day and should take care of third-placed Leon Og. A 10lb rise makes life tough but Paul Carberry's mount can still give a good account though supporters of Rocco's Hall will be hoping for compensation as he had just been joined by the winner at the last when coming to grief. Noble Concorde has struggled at the weights since scoring over 2m6f here last April while Not Before Eight is still a maiden. STREETS OF GOLD is already a Grand National winner this season - the Cork version in October. He ran no sort of race here over Christmas but as he's a sound jumper who stays forever he's just the type for this. Some Target has yet to prove he can get the trip.
