A case of quantity over quality here, with HELL ON EARTH taken to get gain his first ever victory having left his debut effort over fences well behind when finishing runner-up at Tramore on New Year's Day. Jack Fiasco showed aptitude for chasing when fifth at Down Royal last month and could provide the main threat, ahead of Miss Cedille and Favori Logique.
