Verdict

Some interesting newcomers in the line-up and so the market is certain to prove an invaluable aid when assessing this contest. The Elliott trio of Commandant, Dinons and Dorydalis all make appeal on paper with perhaps the last-named boasting clearest credentials on jockey bookings. Lesley Dawn comes here with hope and her colours have been carried to regular success in Britain and Ireland lately while Special Ted represent the Closutton bumper production line. Us And Them should come on from a debut second at Leopardstown but the outstanding candidate on form is RED JACK, who won at Naas in January. Debuchet was second there and has won two bumpers since, either side of being agonisingly gunned down at Cheltenham by the flying filly Fayonagh. Now racing in the McManus hoops, Red Jack looks to have a decent future ahead and can double up in the finale.
