The last two winners have been 20/1 and 25/1. Harold Peto has to concede weight all-round due to his victory as a two-year-old but he's the type his trainer does well with. Jack Dillinger ran a couple of fair races in bumpers and is related to two useful jumpers while LION IN HIS HEART did well to chase home Black Ace in a bumper at Kilbeggan in May and the third has since completed a hat-trick over timber. The latter just gets the nod though Kaiser Black made a very promising debut over 2m4f at Listowel and is virtually guaranteed to improve while the combination of J P McManus and Charles Byrne should ensure Nick Brody gets plenty of support and he's shown enough to be of interest. Weightfordave has been making steady progress and was by no means disgraced in a very tough four-year-old handicap at Listowel last month.
