Formscan  - Rockonliam landed a hat-trick when maintaining his unbeaten record over fences at Wexford. The six-year-old produced a career-best display on that occasion, although the combination of an 11lb hike and a drop back in trip requires more from him. Therefore, the vote goes to SPECTACULARSUNRISE, who got off the mark on his chasing debut at Perth and a 5lb rise seems more than fair. Lisbane Park is open to plenty of improvement going chasing for the first time, while similar comments apply to De Temps En Temps.

Quotes on Rockonliam (IRE)

I'm delighted with that. He was a horse we always hoped would improve for fences and it looks like, hopefully, he will. He's owned by The Cheeky Pups, who are great supporters of ours and of the game. Thankfully some of the lads are here - Ben Carty and Justin (Carty), who is part of the team, his dad Noel is here. Ross Crehan, Luke's son, is here too. Great to have everyone here and delighted for all of the lads.
