FormscanBy Donal Murphy - RATTLE AND HUM was a comfortable winner at Sligo on his most recent start and might be able to follow-up with Jake Coen again taking a valuable 5lb off. Beaten a neck into second on his penultimate outing at Cork, he had subsequent three-time victor Whisky On The Hill a place behind in third. The race conditions favour the three-year-old's in the line-up, with Autocrat another looking well-treated. A Ballydoyle cast-off, he is two wins from four starts since joining Denis Hogan. Halla Ban is a recent course winner and it'll come as little surprise if she manages to follow-up. Star Kissed was fifth in a competitive 18-runner handicap at the Curragh on Sunday and is another leading contender with Colin Keane aboard.
