Who's Deal has won three times between the flags but is much better over shorter trips under Rules. He found 3m1f much too far at Punchestown last time after a very good run behind Kotkidy over 2m1f at Killarney. Bemo Two's only success in 16 starts over fences came on this track but that was over 2m6f and today's trip looks too short. Sense Of Awareness would have an outstanding chance over his favoured trip on ground he loves if fit enough but an absence of almost two years tempers enthusiasm. CHARTANI, a winner over the C&D on very fast ground last August, was having her first start since September when mid-division at Killarney last month and should have been brought to full fitness to gain her second victory on the track.
