Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: B J Cooper| T: P A Fahy| OR: 154| D

66/1

Grade 2 winner at Cork in December 2018 but tends to struggle at the top level and entitled to need the run on his first start since April.

Form: 5/14F6-3

Chacun Pour Soi³⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: P Townend| T: W P Mullins| OR: 169| BF| D

6/5

French recruit who got the better of Defi Du Seuil in a Grade 1 at the Punchestown Festival but didn't seem to have any excuses when runner-up to A Plus Tard in December; drying ground will suit but may struggle to reverse that form.

Form: 253/1-12

Cilaos Emery^h⁵⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: D E Mullins| T: W P Mullins| OR: 165| D

4/1

Impressive Grade 3 winner at Naas in November and landed a three-runner Grade 2 at Cork last time, though only had one rival to beat at the business end of the race; seemingly second string on jockey bookings.

Form: 142/1-11

Duc Des Genievres^t³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: M P Walsh| T: W P Mullins| OR: 160

16/1

Mightily impressive Arkle winner but hasn't kicked on so far this campaign and could only finish runner-up in a Grade 2 at Kempton last time; needs more.

Form: 11-3482

Min⁵⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: R M Power| T: W P Mullins| OR: 171| CD

7/4

Five-time Grade 1 winner over fences including the last two renewals of this race and looked as good as ever when winning at Punchestown in December; interesting Townend picks Chacun Pour Soi but expected to go well again.

Form: 1151-21

Ordinary World³⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: D N Russell| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 152

25/1

Gained a first win since 2016 at Ballinrobe in September but only a distant third behind A Plus Tard and Chacun Pour Soi last time out and this is a stronger race.

Form: 83-6213

Ornua²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: D Robinson| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 150| D

66/1

Looked like a smart prospect when winning at Aintree last season but in no sort of form in his last couple of starts, tailed off each on each occasion; hard to make a case for up in class here.

Form: F1-P280

Forecasts

Chacun Pour Soi (6/5), Min (7/4), A Plus Tard (11/4), Cilaos Emery (4/1), Duc Des Genievres (16/1), Ordinary World (25/1), Ornua (66/1), Castlegrace Paddy (66/1)

Chacun Pour Soi didn't appear to have any excuses when finishing runner-up to A PLUS TARD over course and distance last time out and the unexposed Henry de Bromhead contender is taken to confirm the form here. Min is an obvious threat in his bid for a third straight renewal of this race and he showed he retains all of his ability when winning at Punchestown in December.
