COOLE CRAFT twice finished in a place over this trip before finding 2m4f just taxing his stamina at Punchestown where he was in the lead until the second last. He can gain his first victory though Liclash also found a longer trip too far on his only subsequent start after his battling victory over 2m2f at Limerick last summer. All Summer Long has been threatening to win a race and will enjoy the conditions while Summers King was only just touched off at Clonmel in December and didn't get the run of the race last time. Borussia wasn't beaten far at Clonmel but his career record is 0-30.
