The champion trainer seemingly holds the ace-hand here with STORMY IRELAND and Good Thyne Tara. The former put daylight between herself and the re-opposing runner-up when they met at Killarney in May and, presumably, Ruby Walsh's decision to partner her means she's expected to confirm the form. Paul Townend's mount has won at Listed level already and cannot be overlooked. Their long-absent stablemate Ria D'etel is unexposed but surely will benefit from the run while the same can be levelled at Lackaneen Leader.
