Got his head in front at the fifth time of asking last time out at Naas. Second from that race came out and won next time so the form has a solid look to it and provided he's no worse for the absence, he may be able to make a winning debut for this yard.
Won twice for Johnny Portman before joining this yard in December. Finished in-front of Hochfield last time and may confirm form with that rival but has more on his plate with the rest of this field.
Performed well last time returning from a break and he looks likely to come on for that run. Booking of Baker an obvious positive and he a formidable 21.6% strike-rate when teaming up with this trainer.
Raced keenly last time and had the run of the race out front. Unlikely to get that kind of privilege in here but sole win came at this track and worthy of respect.

Forecasts
Poetic Force (5/4), Global Revival (5/4), Bazwind (4/1), Hochfeld (6/1), Olympic Legend (12/1)
OLYMPIC LEGEND could be the one to beat if he's fit returning from an absence. His win at Naas reads well in the context of this race and the step up in trip looks likely to suit. Global Revival represents a trainer/jockey combination to be feared and he may be able to build on a recent reappearance. Poetic Force got the better of Hochfield last time and he's expected to confirm that form here.
1. Olympic Legend
2. Global Revival
3. Poetic Force
