Going: Good
Surface: Turf
Draw Advantage: NonePAIRC NA NGAEL's form is more out than in but is suited by today's distance and ground. He failed to land a gamble at today's venue in December 2020 and while he belatedly won last November, was beaten a long way subsequently at Killarney in May. However he still appears unexposed and stepping back up in distance will suit. Centurion Steel was third in last year's renewal and has claims despite being in the handicapper's grip. Outside The Door was a somewhat fortunate winner at Wexford last month and while raised 4lb, is suited by distance and ground. Grangeclare Native returned to form when second at Kilbeggan while Arrycan failed to capitalise on a lower handicap hurdle rating in recent times but ran well in a similar chase at Downpatrick last month. Reappearing Goodnightngodbless has yet to win in 17 chase starts while Theatre World's rider claims 7lb but was well held at Roscommon.
