Formscan - Willie Mullins won this last year with Vauban and if the early betting is correct, he may do so again with BELLOCCIO. A winner over hurdles last month, he won in Listed company for his previous trainer and is potentially well-handicapped off a mark of 100, having previously reached a career-high rating of 108. A Piece Of Heaven looks interesting on his first start for Joseph O'Brien after an easy win at Leopardstown last month but an added 7lb makes life tougher, while Intinso is also respected on his ninth start with the addition of a tongue-tie possibly sparking some improvement.
