FormscanBy Alan Magee - Joseph O’Brien has his powerful team in good form as evidenced by a treble at Leopardstown on Wednesday, and perhaps FAME AND ACCLAIM can come out on top here. He won three times last summer including over this course and distance and further advertised his chance here last month in the Lincoln when only beaten about two lengths in sixth. Some of the chief dangers may come from within as O’Brien mounts a strong four-pronged challenge, with Dance Jupiter greatly respected having progressed well last term and open to further improvement. Tauran Shaman won his opening two starts in 2019 but is without a victory since and was expensive to follow on a number of occasions in Premier Handicaps last season. He’s edged back down to an attractive mark and, while slowly away a few times, it will be interesting to see if support arrives again.
