Although seemingly deserted by Paul Townend the fact PARMENION went off favourite in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 over Easter suggests he's thought capable of even better than he's shown so far so perhaps he can provide the Willie Mullins stable with a third win in this very competitive handicap in the last 4 years. Grozni showed he can cope with the demands of a competitive, big-field affair when second at the Dublin Racing Festival and heads the many dangers along with Sweet Will and Lord Snootie.
