VIVA DEVITO has changed stables since a fair debut in a race that has worked out well at Punchestown in April and can make a successful start for new connections. She Is Electric has been narrowly beaten the last twice, including here, and is an obvious danger while Lieutenant Highway was sent to Sandown a month ago and wasn't beaten far in what looked a strong race. Bugs Moran looked very green over hurdles at Cork and has been brought back into a bumper.
