Verdict

Grade 2 contest with former winners including Our Vinnie, Penhill and Faugheen. Trainer Willie Mullins has won this contest in four of the last six renewals and his five-year-old gelding VIS TA LOI can add to that tally in the Hurricane Fly colours. The Gordon Elliott-trained Fury Road is the clear and obvious danger following a couple of facile wins at Down Royal and in a Grade 3 contest at Navan last month. Well Set Up for trainer Mark Fahey has done little wrong since finishing second of eight in a Listed contest at this venue in October and can compete for the places with Zola, Alpine Cobra and lively outsider Sailingtobyzantium.
