Glendaars Warrior easily landed a Down Royal handicap in March last year then followed up at Roscommon in Jun. He's changed stables but the lack of a recent run shouldn't pose a problem. Finding Joy is another who completed a double last year and ran better than her finishing position suggests on her final start in September while Demi Plie won three times over fences last year and she's 21lb lower over hurdles. LORD LARIAT has made great strides in recent weeks, getting up close home over this trip at Tipperary before scoring over 3m there. He's up 12lb but his rider's claim is a bonus and he can complete a hat-trick.
