FormscanBy Alan Magee - NESSUN DORMA will face very contrasting conditions here compared to when scoring twice last summer but the fact Willie Mullins has put him in here and Paul Townend takes the ride is enough to persuade me he’s up to the task. Market support would obviously strengthen the case for the selection who has something to find on the bare form but has plenty of scope for improvement. Celtic Rising took a 20-runner Down Royal maiden in fine style last time and is another contender with some X factor. Cartwright scored at Naas in equally impressive fashion and now takes a slight drop in class after contesting a Grade 2 there last time, while French import Rock de Baune is another to consider in receipt of the allowances. Articulum was a wide-margin winner on his return at Cork but has plenty to prove after a couple of below par efforts since, while Roaring Bull would have filled second spot behind subsequent Cheltenham winner Blow By Blow but for falling at the last in the Grade 3 Michael Purcell at Thurles.
