Nine of the last eleven winners have been drawn 5 or lower so the vote goes to TIMELESS CALL, who has been handed stall one. She's with a trainer who can get one ready better than most and though only having had one run since a close third in a Listed contest at Dundalk in October she'll be ready to go and Ronan Whelan's claim is a big plus. Abstraction may not be too badly off in the middle of the pack and looked very progressive at Tipperary but the in-form pair Johnny Lynch and In Salutem may struggle on the outside. Joe Eile is well drawn though prefers softer ground but Russian Soul can always be relied on to produce the goods even if he doesn't win that often and he's respected despite a big weight. Scream Blue Murder won a Listed race at Nottingham in May and is respected despite a poor draw while Yorkshire-based Declan Carroll almost pulled off a surprise victory here with Whozthecat last month.
