Verdict

Noel Meade looks to hold a strong hand in this Grade 2 chase and his THEDVILSCOACHMAN is fancied to build on his ready Galway success and edge out stable-companion Idas Boy who shaped very well when runner-up at Cork earlier in the month. Gordon Elliott has an excellent record in this event and his chasing newcomer Minella Crooner needs considering too along with Fairyhouse-winner Amirite.
