FormscanBy Gary Carson - A cracking race and the vote goes to INVITATION ONLY, who really impressed with his jumping at Navan last time. He didn't convince early on on his chasing debut here in November before falling at the fifth but that really seems to have taught him a lesson and he was very good when beating a smart sort in Any Second Now last month. He skipped the Christmas action and this looks a nice stepping stone. The Storyteller looks an obvious danger and likewise impressed on his chasing debut at Fairyhouse early last month. He beat a decent field then and the second, Sutton Manor, and third, Livelovelaugh, have both won since. With respect to Mall Dini it looks like a battle between Mullins and Elliott here with both saddling three and aforementioned look their first picks. It would be dangerous to dismiss Dounikos, however, who improved to win at Limerick, and also Koshari, who won well in Thurles, and looks unexposed.
