Patrick Mullins teamed up with Ado McGuiness to win this last year and the combination can go close again via Hightimeyouwon, who is on the same mark as when gaining his second victory of the summer at Leopardstown last month. However, Barbapapa beat the same runner-up there a week earlier and has the advantage at the weights with his rider able to claim 5lb. Both, though, may succumb to SET POINT (NAP), who has gone up 22lb over timber after a very good summer and can return to the Flat with a victory. Punk Poet went up 11lb for scoring at Dundalk and couldn't handle the extra at Navan.
