LE MARTALIN has been placed over hurdles behind both Labaik and Airlie Beach, the latest at Grade 1 level. He has a fine chasing pedigree and can take this on the way to better things. Exactoris has won two bumpers and scored twice over hurdles though he hasn't looked in love with heavy ground recently and Mark Walsh, who has been riding him, chooses All The Answers this time. His mount made a fine start over fences at Killarney but made far too many mistakes when well supported at Galway and has had a confidence booster over timber. Dinaria Des Obeaux looks a real threat as he beat the smart Ex Patriot in a Grade 3 hurdle at Fairyhouse and ended the campaign with good runs in exalted company.
