Race preview
ONEFORTHEDITCH won twice on better ground last year but has no problem handling a more testing surface and may be rewarded for her consistency. She has been placed on her last four starts, including twice over fences, and bumped into a well-treated rival over 2m here last time. Stepping back up in trip will suit her and new rider Calum Hogan takes off a valuable 7lb. Ballinaboola Jet won over this trip at Clonmel and reverts to hurdles after finishing a fair fourth in a chase at Naas. Kilbrin Rocco finished strongly when second over fences here on Friday, while Hakensack ran his best race so far when third at Cork but that form has taken a few knocks since.
