TIMEFORM VIEW: SAMCRO was no match for Faugheen in Grade 1 company at Limerick onBoxing Day, but he's since undergone a second breathing operation and he certainly possesses thetalent to play a lead role if back on song.

TIMEFORM VIEW: There is a good chance PAISLEY PARK may not have peaked yet, even after 7straight wins, and the staying champion can successfully defend his crown. Emitom and the 2018Supreme winner Summerville Boy can complete a 1-2-3 for British-trained horses. City Island looks thepick of the Irish challengers.

(Forecast 26.00)

Notes:

TIMEFORM VIEW: DEISE ABA is improving rapidly and likely has even more to offer over this sortof trip. If he handles this big-field scenario then he seems sure to go well and he's taken to come outon top. Plan of Attack is also firmly on the up and still appears well treated, so he's feared most aheadof Fitzhenry. Timeform 1-2-3: 1: DEISE ABA (6) 2: PLAN OF ATTACK (15) 3: FITZHENRY (7)
