This looks likely to rest between
HARDLINE and
Crackerdancer. The selection has already won one of these at Thurles and, having had his confidence checked with a couple of falls over hurdles, he chased home the well-thought-of Getabird at Gowran Park back in a bumper in January. Despite conceding weight all round, he looks the pick of the bunch. Crackerdancer defied a long absence to go close on stable debut in a Gowran bumper last month, that was a fine effort in the circumstances but there has to be some concern it will leave a mark for this contest.
Worth The Oscar has had just one outing and may be best equipped of the remainder in what looks a weak contest.
