JONBON (2) partnered again by Nico De Boinville who is building a great record when aboard. Finds a nice race and is the one to beat. PROTEKTORAT (4) genuine threat to the top selection. EL FABIOLO (1) is a talented jumper who in the G1 Dublin Chase (3400m) at Leopardstown two starts ago. Made amends when runner-up, beaten 1.3 lengths, in the G2 Webster Cup Chase (4100m) at Navan last start. Hard to fault on that most recent effort. MATATA (3) looking to go a couple better after filling a minor placing in the G2 Game Spirit Chase (3300m) at Newbury last time out on February 8. One of the leading contenders.
