13/8

Useful chaser. 2 wins from 5 runs this season. Well-beaten seventh of 8 in Killiney Novices' Chase at Punchestown (20.2f, heavy, 25/1) 56 days ago. Not ruled out back in these calmer waters.

Useful chaser who landed 6-runner novice chase (11/4) at Thurles (22f, soft) 17 days ago. Course winner too, and he's the one to beat on form.

50/1

Forecasts

Jeremys Flame (1/1), Lifetime Ambition (13/8), Delvino (9/2), West Cork Wildway (13/2), Presenting Bonnie (50/1), Tullyhogue Fort (200/1)

JEREMYS FLAME brings the best form to the table and can boast a course win too so Gavin Cromwell's mare gets the verdict. Lifetime Ambition has less to do than when well held at Punchestown and is next on the list ahead of in-form West Cork Wildway.
