Paul Townend chooses DYSART DIAMOND of Willie Mullins' six entries and she's the only course winner in the line-up having beaten a big field over 2m on St Stephen's Day. She's been raised an astonishing 31lb in the ratings which makes this much more difficult though is progressing fast enough to defy the extra. Her stable companion Lady Breffni, an excellent fourth in a Navan Grade B handicap before landing her maiden at Punchestown, looks quite well in on 128 while Getaway Gorgeous, another from the yard, should give Brian Hayes a good ride. Telmesomethinggirl was in fine form last summer though she's never raced on ground this testing but Rescue Package looked at home in the conditions when comfortably landing a Punchestown maiden. Mrs Milner and Global Equity both have the form to get involved but The Getaway Star disappointed at Tramore.
