After scoring over 1m2f at Clonmel, King Christophe led for a long way over this trip at Tipperary and is still well treated on his best form. Manomine was going well when last seen late last year and had won at Musselburgh in the summer though soft ground looks a problem. Boom Or Bush has only won once in 17 starts and is still 6lb higher than that victory while Scoil Naisiunta has never raced beyond a mile though she did manage to win over that trip as a juvenile. NANABAD looked ideally suited to the trip and ground when staying on nicely in a stronger race than this at Roscommon a couple of weeks ago. Dylan Hogan can again use his claim and his mount can double her winning tally.
