Verdict
Changing The Rules looks the type to do better after finding the minimum too sharp at Naas while Mahler Allstar has the form to win this on a going day and may not have been suited by racing prominently the last twice against strong opposition. Rebel Rascal will have found the going testing enough at Clonmel but THE ROAD TO FAME could be the one to beat. Eoin Doyle's charge was beaten less than three lengths on his hurdling debut behind Glengouly at Gowran and the winner has completed a double subsequently.
