The winner of this race is not listed in the betting, has good form with the moral winner of the Jewson chase and has a lovely racing weight. He'll be remembered as a very good winner of this race in years to come.

The Jewson remark has thrown me despite you naming the horse.
 
Noele Meade has done wonders with Pandorama who ran a good second yesterday. It wouldn't surprise me if Muirhead, who as a one time high class hurdler, ran a big race.

Not long since he ran 6th in the Galway plate and he looks to have been let down and brought back specifically for this. He travels well enough and hopefully I can cover stake in running and have a bet to nothing.

Barrgy G seems quite bullish in his column about his chances on Jacksonlady 6/1 to be in the first 4 28 on the machine to win so I'll have a bit of that too.
 
Home Farm for me, looks to have been laid out by Arthur Moore, the same way Organised Confusion was.
 
I like the look of the Paul Nolan trained, Gigginstown owned pair of Sweeney Tunes and Panther Claw. Panther Claw was very impressive at Navan ,and while Russell rides Sweeney Tunes he couldn't have done the weight on Panther Claw anyway.

A Gigginstown 1-2 with Katie on the winner.
 
Love this race, had the winner once or twice, havn't got a clue this time but I like RAPIDOLYTE DE LADALKA as he is a progressive type, (that name copied and pasted straight from the RP!)

My old namesake Marble famously tipped the winner last year Lion Na Bearnai aswell!

Good luck everyone.

Likely to be 1 or 2 progressive types ahead of the handicapper, but Magnanimity is a rock solid place bet for me. He'll jump travel stay and fight. Can't have him out of 1st 5.
