FormscanBy Eamonn Murphy - The locally-based sponsors will be hoping to win their own money back as the Ellmarie Holden trained Ex Patriot lines up for this feature event.It's two years now since Ex Patriot really announced himself on the scene with a fourth place finish in the Triumph Hurdle at the Cheltenham festival.He may have begun on the Flat but the Holden runner has always looked the type to make a chaser and he had his attentions switched to fences this season.The Elusive Pimpernel gelding justified favouritism at Thurles in February but he'll need to brush up on his jumping here as he enters handicap company.Willie Mullins' Dolciano Dici has a similar profile to Ex Patriot and he obviously needs respecting under Paul Townend.Goulane Chosen triumphed in this two and a quarter miler twelve months ago.Seamus Spillane has his charge back in search of a repeat,and he's again booked Donie McInerney for the ride.Tipperary trainer John Ryan landed the valuable prize in 2017 with Kilcarry Bridge.Ryan should get a good run for his money now through Reach Up, a course victor three weeks ago over a slightly shorter trip.Gordon Elliott has two in the mix with Doctor Phoenix and Sunsetstorise,and J P McManus also has dual representation, Nearly Nama'd and CALL A CAB doing battle for him.The line-up is completed by Henry de Bromhead's Avenir D'Une Vie,Sean O'Brien's Revelyn Pleasure and Robert Tyner's Gurteen.
