Goose Man (10/11), Bravissimo (11/4), Robin Des Mana (7/2), Inis Meain (11/1)
ROBIN DES MANA is taken for the opener and to overcome the 7lb hike in the weights following a facile 19L win at Punchestown last month. Goose Man who is one from three this season and the Willie Mullins-trained Bravissimo can certainly give the selection plenty to think about in a tricky contest.
