Formscan By Michael Graham - Willie Mullins has landed the last three renewals of this race and his PLACE DE LA NATION appeals. She is a four-year-old French recruit who receives plenty of weight from her rivals and holds a Triumph Hurdle entry at Cheltenham. Mullins also saddles Karoline Banbou who just gave best in second close home at Naas at November. That was her first run for more than a year and she was a Grade 3 bumper winner in her native France. Swing Davis drops back in trip after finishing second on hurdle debut at this track, while there is surely more to come from Glens Lullaby who was decent in bumpers.
