A maximum field but only two with realistic chances. CAPTAIN KANGAROO, who had the outstanding Kilcruit 4 lengths behind when landing a Clonmel bumper, will have been expected to have won by now over hurdles though made a bold bid to concede 7lb to On Eagles Wings here last month in a race that has worked out very well. He just gets the nod over Hurricane Cliff, who couldn't quite get to Frere Tuck at Punchestown but had a couple of decent performers behind. Gordon Elliott's newcomer Landing Zone had a dozen starts on the Flat and was placed just once but Getaway Goldie ran very much better than her 150/1 SP would imply when placed behind the classy Bob Olinger at Navan where she was in touch for a long way over that 2m4f.
