Verdict
VERY VITE finished behind the high-class Backspin on his debut at Punchestown back in 2010. He's taken to start making up for lost time here and open his account. Butney Boy also returns from a lay-off but should be in the mix on his second at Down Royal last December while Goldski is another making a comeback after a lengthy absence. The Other Side has the more recent form and is preferred to De Glebe Star of the remainder.
