FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Fitted with cheekpieces for the first time, CHAVAJOD ran out a convincing winner over the course and distance last month on what was his debut for Denis Coakley. Coakley’s son Ross returns home from the UK to partner the Toronado gelding, who will be well-fancied to follow-up, despite an 11lb rise. A case can be made for many others in this wide-open contest. A dual course and distance winner, Helpmeout was fourth of 20 on her return to action at the Curragh last month and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a few places better now. Six-time winner Jered Maddox was also fourth in a competitive affair at the Curragh recently and he should give a good account of himself with Declan McDonogh aboard. A fast-finishing second at Cork last month, Dagoda is sure to have plenty of supporters with Colin Keane booked to ride, while others for the shortlist are Fastman, Eloquent Arthur and Jaafel.
