FormscanBy Gary Carson - KISH BANK sets the standard here off his mark of 120 and should prove hard to beat. The Mount Nelson gelding has run solid races to finish runner-up on his last two outings and stepping up in trip now may help the point-to-point winner. Watchful Protector has a bit to find with the selection having been 15 lengths behind him when third at Fairyhouse in February. He was a touch disappointing back in a bumper last time but is capable of reaching the frame in this company. Happy Me ran well when runner-up at Thurles last time and is another for the shortlist, off a nice weight in this.
