FormscanBy Gary Carson - KING OF KINGSFIELD comes here off a cracking run to finish second in Grade 1 company and can get his head in front now. The Vadamos gelding was chased down by Farren Glory on the run-in in the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse. He has been described as a bit of a weak finisher but is a classy horse and his fitness and experience is a big asset here. Willie Mullins talks highly of Mirazur West and he looks like an obvious danger. Ferny Hollow's brother was impressive when winning a Naas bumper back in March. James's Gate was formerly with Mullins and is an interesting runner on his first outing for Martin Brassil. The Shantou gelding was third to Facile Vega in the 2022 running of the Cheltenham bumper and returns from a lengthy absence now.
