FormscanBy Gary Carson - Grade 1 winner GOOD LAND should prove the one to beat if taking to fences on his return from an absence. The Blue Bresil gelding was forced to sit out last season with a tendon injury and connections will be keen to make up for lost time. He won at the top level at the Dublin Racing festival in February 2023 before a solid run to finish fourth in the Ballymore Novices' Hurdle at Cheltenham the following month. Ile Atlantique was placed twice at Grade 1 level last season and looks the obvious danger on his chase debut. Now Is The Hour will appreciate any rain and is another for the shortlist.
