Banana Flambre has yet to score in 13 starts over fences but has gradually dropped to a decent mark and showed a bit more at Downpatrick last time. Dante Anna followed a reasonable run over this track and trip with a narrow defeat over timber at Clonmel so she should be in the shake-up while Massinis Adventure followed his first victory over fences at Clonmel in October by blundering his way round on this track a week later. REDCLUE has been progressing nicely and followed a good effort over fences at Downpatrick by scoring easily over hurdles there then almost defying a huge weight rise at Clonmel. He's still only six and looks ready to win again. Sand Artist is an obvious threat with his lowly weight as he came close to scoring at Perth though his best form to date has been on softer ground.
