In depth
Verdict
Jammy George had some strong form in the UK but hasn't shown much for new connection while bumper winner Momus has been very disappointing over hurdles and fences. Mount Melleray ran well behind Oscar Thyne at Clonmel and won't need to do much more though the one really unexposed entry is NOT AVAILABLE. Henry De Bromhead's charge has only had three starts, scoring over timber at Kilbeggan, and the close relative of the very smart Identity Thief can make a successful chasing debut. The Gunner Murphy is better than he showed at Fairyhouse while Everybreathyoutake, successful between the flags and three-times a hurdles winner, is one to note on his debut over regulation fences.
