Indignation makes his handicap debut after a much improved run at Dundalk in February. New Vocation is back in form for new connections though her recent runs have been over shorter. Power Drive has been in action over hurdles since completing a Dundalk double though is 10lb higher than his last victory. Geolai makes her handicap debut but led for a long way in a Fairyhouse maiden over this trip and is on the upgrade. GRACE TO GRACE hails from a yard in outstanding form and though unraced since an impressive victory at Galway in October and 11lb higher looks the one to beat, especially if the ground eases further. Marmolata has changed stables and showed some potential in three starts last year. She's with the right yard to take advantage of what could be a lenient mark. Pillmakers Hill has never run over the trip but has been staying on over shorter.
