FormscanBy John O'Riordan - The Willie Mullins-trained IRANCY should prove hard to beat on his second start for the stable. A winner in his native France as a three-year-old, the gelding made a promising start for new connections when third on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse last December. Given that both the winner and runner-up in that race went on to prove themselves in Grade 1 company after, this looks a nice opportunity for the Saddex six-year-old. Rapparee Champ, a winner on the Flat for Joseph O'Brien, has been improving with each run over flights. Charles Byrnes representative holds every chance of opening his account. The unbeaten Will The Wise is another that is worthy of maximum respect for trainer Gavin Cromwell.

Quotes on Will The Wise (IRE)
He’s weak and will be a good horse when he gets to jump fences. Deccy said the pace was very stop/start and he was only getting going at the finish. He’d been going nicely at home and we ran him in a schooling bumper last week. That’s him gone now for the summer and he’ll go hurdling later in the year.
