Verdict

Several of these have been jumping including The Abbey, a winner over 1m6f at Killarney and runner-up over fences at Downpatrick earlier this month. Sacchoandvanzetti was in excellent form over timber at the backend of last year but hasn't run since unplaced in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham in March. Mountain Fox doesn't win often but arrives in excellent form having landed a 1m4f Leopardstown handicap and made a bold bid to defy an 8lb rise over 2m at Tramore. Lady Arona stepped up to 1m2f for the first time at Cork and was staying on when the race was all over. She's on a handy weight as is THEFAITHFULINDIAN and the latter, who is still a maiden after 16 runs, is handed a tentative vote after a couple of improved efforts in recent weeks.
