LARQUEBUSE and Lunch In Adare dead-heated over this trip at Fairyhouse in November and the suspicion is the former has more scope. Both were since defeated in graded events but Gordon Elliott's charge offered plenty to work with in a 3m Cork race that probably wasn't run to suit him. Back down in trip, he looks the one to be with. Barrington Court may be on the upgrade for the in-form Jessica Harrington team while Darrens Hope is another with possible upside to come.
