Formscan  - Lord has to be respected following his Listed success at Aintree last time, but a 5lb penalty for that win could leave him vulnerable. With that in mind, preference is for SECRET FORCE. The Irish raider struggled in a Grade 2 last time but that was a strong contest and his previous Punchestown victory suggests that he could play a leading role at this level. Falls Of Acharn and Scarlet Moon are others to note.
