4/1

Useful chaser. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, below-form third of 7 to Paloma Blue in conditions event at Wexford (16f, soft, 3/1) 22 days ago. Back up in trip but plenty to find on form.

Form: 32-8333

4/7

Very smart chaser who scored at Kilbeggan in July. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap on Flat at Leopardstown (15f, good to firm) 45 days ago. Much respected back chasing now.

10/3

Useful chaser but well-held fifth of 7 to Paloma Blue in conditions chase at Wexford (16f) 22 days ago. Up in trip and course winner though needs lot more here.

Forecasts

Peregrine Run (4/7), The Storyteller (7/4), Paloma Blue (3/1), Djingle (10/3), Ornua (4/1), Whisperinthebreeze (12/1)

THE STORYTELLER is the clear form pick so impossible to oppose in his hat-trick bid after two recent wins at Galway over fences and hurdles. Peregrine Run looks the one to chase home Gordon Elliott's versatile gelding, while Paloma Blue appeals as the pick of the remainder.
