In depth

Verdict

Catamongdepidgeons looks the best of those with bumper experience having run well behind Knocklong at Naas last month. First To Boogie started favourite on his debut between the flags at Liscarroll last month and would have won easily but for falling at the last. Goldboy arrives from the Willie Mullins yard and is likely to be well supported as he's a half-brother to a winning bumper while Noel Meade won this last year and Curley Bill is on the short-list as he has plenty of pace in his pedigree. Paul Nolan has three entries and Jamie Codd's mount CIARANS OSCAR can come out best of the trio and take this difficult race to weigh up.
