Drive The Bus is the only one of these to have won here though that was over fences and he hasn't run since August. Eric The Third was returning from a break when running very well at Tramore last month and wouldn't need much more to get competitive while The Irritator has been running better than his form figures suggest and can get involved. TED BACH has been inconsistent but produced his best run to date when facing this sort of ground at Tipperary last month and a similar effort would see him difficult to beat. Rock On Lilly ran poorly here last time but would have a chance on her previous run at Cork.
