FormscanBy Donal Murphy - JOHANNISBERGER is the pick here due to the fact he is more experienced over fences than his main rivals Toostrong and Madam Bovary. The Noel Meade trained gelding has put in four good efforts over fences to date and the 6yo son of Arakan should be good enough to win this. The Willie Mullins trained Toostrong looks his biggest danger. The French bred son of Network (sire of Rubi Light) has been off the track since last March where he disappointingly pulled up at Thurles. Before that he won on his Irish debut in Fairyhouse. Making his debut over fences here, a good run can be expected with Willie Mullins saying in a recent stable tour%3B "he is a fine, big chasing type". The well-bred Madam Bovary is another worth consideration. The Jessica Harrington trained mare has a point-to-point, bumper and hurdle success to her name and she ran well enough on her last start at Down Royal (finished third behind He'llberemembered with Johannisberger in second) to suggest she should go close here.
