FormscanBy Donal Murphy - Eddie Lynam has a strong hand, saddling three of the eight declared. The Co Meath handler is responsible for newcomer Bear Cub, along with KEKE and Cross Border. There was just a short head between the selection and his stable companion when they finished second and third behind Smullen's Pride at Down Royal earlier this month. Coming from off the pace, Keke was a fast-finisher at the Maze venue and appears to be progressing with every run. Rathbranchurch is the biggest danger. Without a win in 15 starts, he has filled the runner-up spot three times and went down by just half-a-length on his penultimate outing in a competitive 21-runner affair at Navan. In first time cheekpieces, the aforementioned Cross Border should give a good account of himself, while Ferrari Desert is another capable of making his presence felt.
