Kazansky
KAZANSKY finished 8 lengths adrift of reopposing Doctor Steinberg when the pair met at the Dublin Racing Festival last month but appeals as the type who will be tailor-made by the demands of this race and at forecast odds, he could be worth siding with for the stable that landed this 2 years ago. Doctor Steinberg (3-3 over hurdles) has looked every inch a smart prospect and is highly respected, as is River Don scorer Thedeviluno. Spinningayarn and Mondoui'boy are also worth a look.

Useful bumper scorer who arrives a perfect 3-3 over hurdles, building on his Navan Grade 2 victory (form franked) in no uncertain terms when impressively landing Leopardstown Grade 1 last month (Kazansky second).

Fairly useful bumper performer who defeated a subsequent Grade 1 scorer on hurdles bow at Gowran (2m) in November. Improved without being seen to best effect when second next time and he relished step up to 3m when landing River Don at Doncaster latest.
