PreviewsThis contest has generally been a nightmare for punters to solve, with winners priced at 40-1, 25-1, 33-1, 25-1, 33-1 and 33-1 all going in since 2012. The Irish have won this race the last couple of years, and Gordon Elliott has a strong hand as you would expect with five runners. Aramax holds obvious claims, although Saint D'Oroux might be well handicapped and Recent Revelations is weighted to get closer to Aramax after finishing second to the ante-post favourite at Naas last month. Perhaps Elliott's most intriguing contender, though, is TRONADOR, who has been given a 53-day break since finishing third at Navan. A winner at Thurles before that, the Lope De Vega gelding sports the same colours as Veneer Of Charm, who landed this prize in 2018 at lofty odds. Nick Williams has a bit of history in this event and his Galahad Quest beat Night Edition (second) here in a Triumph trial earlier in the year, while Mick Pastor got his career back on track when scoring at Ludlow but was previously far too keen when turning out in Grade 2 company here in November.
