Philip Fenton is appealing his ban so can have runners and he's won this twice in the past three years. Akito ran very well at Cork last month and should go well and though Art Of Security was beaten a long way into third at Punchestown in April he was staying on nicely and should be winning soon. Tully East was disqualified from third after a fair debut at Naas when his rider failed to weigh in but this looks another for the Willie and Patrick Mullins team via CHILDRENS LIST, who was well supported when making a successful debut in a point at Belharbour in February. There are plenty of interesting newcomers on show including Delegate, the second foal of a mare who scored over 7f in France and by the leading stallion Robin Des Champs.
