URGENT DE GREGAINE was a winner here in January last year and having placed twice since including on soft ground at Pardubice he can register his eighth victory in what looks a highly competitive renewal of this contest. Last years winner Cause Of Causes made a highly promising reappearance at Leopardstown last time out and he can claim third while Bless The Wings can place in this race for the third consecutive year by finishing third. The selections fellow French raider Urumqi looks a potential dark horse with the step up in trip likely to suit.
