Lifetime Legend has performed with credit in handicaps at Galway and Killarney in recent weeks though has had plenty of chances. ZAYNUDIN has been a beaten odds-on favourite the last twice, both over 1m4f, but his form earlier in the campaign over this trip would give him the edge so he looks the one to beat. Moracana, runner-up on her debut at Navan, looked as though she needed this sort of trip when only fourth over 1m1f at Punchestown. Valle De La Luna makes a belated debut and the daughter of Galileo out of a Group 1 winner wouldn't need to be anything special to make a successful start.
