Silverlord has finished runner-up in four of his six starts over timber, including when finding only Mackey's Forge too good at Navan before Christmas. He probably sets the standard here but lacks the scope of DYLAN ROSS. Noel Meade has his string in terrific form and this dual bumper winner will have had plenty of schooling ahead of his debut over obstacles. Rookery Rebel is back over hurdles after a spell over fences but thoroughly exposed and more interesting is Indubitably, who improved on previous efforts when fourth to Talk About Miltown at Fairyhouse last month.
