In depth
Verdict
Sammy Samba has ran well in bumpers and will be hard to beat if she can reproduce that form on her first attempt over hurdles. Swift Pearl has shown some ability over hurdles in Ierland and he looks the likely one to follow the favourite home. Quizzical looks the most like the winner of the outsiders having showed improved form last time.
