KRUZHLININ is the veteran of the party, but proved that he retains plenty of ability when scoring at Navan in March and again when chasing home Shady Operator at Killarney last time. Denise Foster's charge enjoys a sizeable pull at the weights with that rival here and gets the nod. Shock Irish National winner Freewheelin Dylan landed this race last year and is feared most ahead of Shady Operator.
