Brian Ellison is double handed with Be Kool arriving in good form having won at York and Ayr in recent weeks. KNOCKMAOLE BOY, who came here on Monday with two victories over hurdles under his belt, landed a 7f handicap in good style and is likely to go up by more than the 6lb penalty he's occurred for this so can complete a quick double. Ace Of Diamonds stayed on strongly to lead close home over 1m2f at Leopardstown but won't have a problem dropping back in trip on this sort of ground and has to be a real threat. Remarkable Lady is another in top form, though she may find the ground a bit too testing, while Collision Course took a long time to get off the mark and is 7lb higher. Aussie Valentine has bounced back to form and is invariably thereabouts in tough handicaps but Clonard Street hasn't won since making a successful debut at this fixture in 2014.
