Jim Bolger and Dermot Weld have won seven of the last 11 between them. The former is represented by STELLAR MASS, a close fourth in a Group 2 here in September and whose overall form is best of those with experience. Weld has three entries with Pat Smullen's mount Embiran, who stayed on nicely over 7f at Cork in October, likely to prove the pick of them. Aidan O'Brien's pair Bravery and Claudio Monteverdi both caught the eye on their respective debuts and more is expected while Pacodali only just failed to hold off Radiantly at Tipperary. There are plenty of others with chances in what looks a wide-open maiden.
