SHANTOU LUCKY went very sweetly for a long way at Fairyhouse last time so is taken to add to his earlier Down Royal success off a handy-looking mark. Handicap-debutant Explosive Boy rates a big threat if, as expected, building on his recent Naas fifth, with Sefton Warrior, Rebel Ivy and Paddy Wickla all on the shortlist too.
