Jacks Island is best at this trip and ran a tremendous race to finish a close third behind All The Eights at Clonmel but he was beaten over 20 lengths by THE HOODOO REMAINS over the C&D in January and is unlikely to reverse the form on these terms. The selection likes his races close together so it shouldn't pose a problem that he ran a good third at Gowran on Wednesday. Aerlite Rooler deserves his place at the head of the weights and won first-time-back last year and though down to run here yesterday he hasn't previously been seen since falling when in with every chance at Ballinrobe last June. Clan Music has been finding things tough since scoring at Punchestown in October but has dropped to a more reasonable mark.
