Formscan - Gordon Elliott won this contest last year with Three Stripe Life and he can do so once more with IRISH POINT, who has some eyecatching form from earlier in the season. Already a runner-up in two Grade 1s, including when pipped by Supreme winner Marine Nationale in the Royal Bond, the five-year-old skipped Cheltenham, instead warming up for this with a confidence-boosting Naas success. You Wear It Well arrives on the back of an excellent victory in the Mares' Novices' Hurdle, but she must overturn form with her Challow conqueror Hermes Allen, who was a major disappointment at the Festival. Dark Raven could be interesting stepping up in trip, while Springwell Bay has won his last two with considerable ease and is another to note. Letsbeclearaboutit wasn't beaten far in the Albert Bartlett and may well be suited by going back in distance.
