FormscanBy Donal Murphy - ALPHA DES OBEAUX and Balko Des Flos are the stand out names here, with preference for the Gordon Elliott trained former. The selection may have only won once last season but ran some excellent races in defeat. Previously trained by Mouse Morris, the nine-year-old had his first start for Elliott in October of last year, winning a Listed contest at Thurles in November. Tried in blinkers for the first time, he then ran a cracker to finish second in the Thyestes and chased home Rathvinden in the Bobbyjo Chase at Fairyhouse. The blinkers remain in place now and it'll be disappointing if the son of Saddler Maker isn't involved towards the business end here. Balko Des Flos is rated six pounds higher than the selection and was last successful in the Ryanair Chase at Cheltenham in 2018. He was a fine third in the Betway Bowl at Aintree on his most recent start and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to register a seventh career win here. Tout Est Permis won three times from four starts last season and should give a good account of himself, while the other three in the line-up are likely to struggle in a race of this quality.
