FormscanBy Alan Magee - Willie Mullins has won this race eight times in the past decade and MY GREAT MATE heads a three-pronged challenge by the Closutton maestro who also saddles bumper winers Uncle Pat and Where’s My Jet. The selection beat Arctic Gale in a bumper here 12 months ago before following up at Punchestown and was only caught close home when switched to hurdles in a 22-runner maiden also at Punchestown last month. Don’tstopthemusic was runner-up in a bumper here last summer before scoring in good style at the Punchestown Festival and also has the experience of a hurdle run on debut, while Lightkeeper and Isle Of Sark are others to consider.
A hurdle for five years old and upwards, maidens at starting
