Noel Meade's FAULTY made a good return to action when second at Punchestown last month and can build on that and deservedly get his head in front. Icare Desbois let favourite backers down at Naas last time but is still feared most ahead of Gordon Elliott's Lightkeeper, who was behind the selection at Punchestown.
