MARKEY CEE has a career strike-rate of 1-42 and is still a maiden over fences though this will be only his sixth start. He has to be the form pick on his excellent run behind Muchu at Galway last week, though his win to runs ratio is a concern. Bishop's Lane arrives from the point-to-point field where he's won four times. He's had experience over regulation fences and looks well enough treated taking his rider's claim into consideration. Another winner between the flags, Red Seven, has yet to reach a place over fences but the youngster Bruff showed his first sign of ability when equipped with blinkers at Kilbeggan last time and is expected to make progress. Baby's Hot has been going well over hurdles but Chasers Chance hasn't won since 2009.
