Tintown Robin has been rested since a poor run at Clonmel in November which followed a victory there a fortnight earlier. Alohamora gained her only victory at Catterick over a year ago though she bounced back with a good run at Leopardstown last month. Cusp Of Carabelli won a maiden here in October and didn't run badly in either subsequent start in handicaps so he can go well if ready after a break. VIKING HOARD doesn't look an obvious selection and has been struggling at the weights since winning a Killarney handicap by 15l last summer though this won't take much winning and he's handed a tentative vote.
