Cases can be made for any number of these but few arrive here in better form than WEE CHARLIE, who has sprouted wings since joining this yard and the way he went through the race when runner-up at Thurles recently strongly suggested that he is still ahead of his mark. Unexposed trio Diamond Nora, Ethical Diamond and Pinot Gris are all feared (in that order of preference), while Enniskerry and Lieber Nicc are also appealing. Jacovec Cavern hails from a shrewd yard and needs a second look, too.
