Formerly with Sir Michael Stoute, ALHAAZM is now with Kevin Prendergast. He’s made the frame in five of his nine career starts and will have no problems with the going or trip today so is probably the one to beat. Run For Oscar won a Leopardstown bumper in March and will be thereabouts if handling the quicker surface while Rayounpour has been gelded since placing over 1m4f at the Curragh and Tipperary last summer. Longbourn was knocking on the door at Dundalk over the winter while Munaazil has been very lightly raced so is probably capable of better. Accompanied has a nice pedigree and may make a hurdler in time.
