Race preview
STEALTHY TOM, who is a half-brother to Grade 1 victor Gilgamboa, is a dual course winner and claimed this very contest 12-months ago. Beaten by just a neck in the La Touche at Punchestown, he can gain some measure of compensation now. Enda Bolger trains the selection and he is also represented by Norwigi. Out of a Grade 3 winner in Nadiya De La Vega, she wasn't beaten far when fourth on her most recent outing at Tramore. JP McManus owns the aforementioned pair and he has a third contender in the shape of handicap debutant Harvey's Quay, with this one also warranting respect. Politicise is given second preference. He just failed at Tipperary recently and should appreciate this step-up in trip, with Carl Millar again taking a valuable 7lb off. Magnium starts off for John Ryan and it'll be interesting to see how he fares with Danny Mullins aboard. Gavin Cromwell saddles Broken Ice, Silvertown and Donnrua Dream, with the Keith Donoghue ridden latter fitted with cheekpieces for the first time.
