Supercede has run poorly over fences but there's no doubting he's well handicapped if able to reproduce his recent efforts over timber at Perth which have come from higher marks. Edward O'Grady is dually represented with Oola Lad just preferred to Bernabeu though there should be little between the pair. Oscar Glory jumps and stays well and ran a fine race behind Hoopy at Galway last time. He looks a big threat but WITHOUT THE BOP was an impressive winner over the C&D on Thursday and a 4lbs penalty may not be enough to prevent a quick double.
