Denis Hogan holds a strong hand with CAESAR'S COMET and Gopsies Daughter with preference for the former. He's having his first start for the yard but the form of his two recent runs have been boosted. The latter invariably goes well around here and has a big pull in the weights with Sweetest Taboo on their run at Bellewstown in July and also holds Haqeeba on their run at Navan. Enter The Red won off a 3lb higher mark on his final start last season and enters the fray fresher than most but Danz Gift, five times a winner on the all-weather, has never scored on Turf.
