Declan Ryan has been unable to get a victory out of Isaac Bell but he likes fast ground and looks certain to get involved in the finish. Little Haarth has shown plenty of ability and is another who won't mind the conditions but Red Jacket looks the best of those with experience after a very promising debut at Tipperary where he didn't get the run of the race. Edward O'Grady's Swizzler is one to note in the market though it's another newcomer, OUR DOUGAL, who is handed the verdict as he's a half-brother to six winners on the Flat and over timber and looks just the type his trainer does so well with in these races.
