The Willie Mullins-trained AIONE can progress from a facile win over hurdles at Gowran Park last month over 2m4f to win here. The seven-year-old can hold off the challenge of potential dangers in the shape of Alpine Cobra, winner of a Punchestown maiden in November, the John Queally-trained Arcadian Sunrise, gutsy winner at Thurles last month and Russian Diamond who comes here on a hat-trick of wins following success in a Galway bumper before a win in a Down Royal maiden hurdle in December.
