FormscanBy Tom Weekes - VIS TA LOI won just an ordinary maiden hurdle at Clonmel last month but might be able to step up and win this. He ran once as a 4yo in his native France in April 2018, finishing third on heavy ground at Compiegne, and defied a 590 days absence to win at Clonmel last month. He clearly goes very well on testing ground and given his size, this step up to a more staying trip should bring about plenty improvement. Well Set Up is a proven dour stayer on soft ground and won today's prep race over course and distance 35 days ago. She is a consistent 130 rated mare who should go well but could prove vulnerable to a smart and improving type. Larquebuse also goes well on testing ground and while she was well beaten in a smart maiden hurdle here in November, then ran a remarkable race when powering home for a last-gasp dead-heat win at Fairyhouse. She clearly will appreciate the step up in trip and while connections have opted for cheek-pieces today in an effort to possibly inject some enthusiasm, a black-type placing for the mare would also represent a good result for connections. Battle Of Midway is himself a useful performer but has top weight. He has shown solid ability on testing ground and while he comes here fit and well reverting to three miles, was beaten here over course and distance in October and looks vulnerable to smart performers. Alpine Cobra landed a sizeable gamble at Punchestown last month and while this is a step up in class, has his chance today as a proven soft ground stayer. Shanwalla also merits consideration despite being a maiden. He is a dual bumper winner and while beaten in four hurdle outings, has run some solid races in defeat and ran a solid race when third in a handicap at Cheltenham last month. %0A%0A
