Tulsa Jack was in touch when falling two out in this marathon a year ago and returned to form when just failing to concede lumps of weight to the winner at Downpatrick last month. Call It Magic hasn't had much experience over fences and has never been beyond three miles but the booking of Robbie Power suggests he's expected to stay the trip. White Arm is another untried over the distance and he's 8lb higher than his comfortable victory over He Rock's at Fairyhouse. The veteran Bless The Wings has done superbly well to chase home Cause Of Causes at Cheltenham and Our Duke in the Irish National and has to be a major player if those exertions haven't taken their toll. ARBRE DE VIE, runner-up to Woodland Opera here yesterday, has a touch of quality and has been a bit unfortunate not to have won over fences. This could be the making of him if he turns out quickly and he's handed the vote though Anthony Honeyball's Cresswell Breeze looks the type to go well off what looks a fair mark.
