OCEAN GLANDORE fell at the second last when challenging at Down Royal in June and has since won two out of three over hurdles. He's still progressing and can continue his stable's fine form and take this. Vaxalco finished runner-up in this a year ago when it was run over a slightly shorter trip and has since scored between the flags, though his last two runs have been disappointing. Battling Boru pulled up on his only start over fences though that was on heavy going almost two years ago and he's generally thereabouts over hurdles as is Broughtons Bandit, though at a lowly level. Lettermacaward won over timber here in May and made a satisfactory start over fences at Tipperary last month while chasing debutant Roman Numeral has also won over hurdles here.
