Not for the faint hearted this one, Snugsborough Benny was well-backed at Limerick last time and might well have obliged had he got going sooner. He's respected alongside Spider Web who has shown good form recently. Forgiving A Rated a no-show last time is deemed the correct course of action, he can bounce back, while last year's winner Riviera Sun should be fitter for his reappearance. Gordon Elliott's ability to improve one could be demonstrated with TOP OF THE TOWN, who has been going along quietly over hurdles since joining the yard and could be set for a big tilt here under Davy Russell, who steered him to his sole chase win last year.
