FOLLOWMEUPTOCARLOW scored over C&D last month and posted an even better effort at Punchestown last time, despite only managing fourth. With further progress expected, he gets the nod ahead of Korean who has gone close on his last couple of starts over 2m in similar company. Whats Up Britta's best efforts have been over further including her fifth at Clonmel last week, while Smile Crocodile has a bit to find with the selection on latest running. Storm Breaker has the past form to figure and makes most appeal of the remainder.
