Davids Charm will be sharper for a recent outing over timber and has every chance on these terms if running anywhere near his hurdles form. But BENRUBEN has placed in a Grade 3 over fences and was in the lead in a Listed chase at Thurles last year when falling at the last. He gets the vote having left Joseph O’Brien’s yard since last in action. The latter runs Konitho, who hasn’t raced since 2018 and debuts over fences while Global Jackpot may do better back at this level having been well beaten in handicaps chases. Conron debuts over the larger obstacles along with Ming Dynasty and the returning Percy Veer.
