PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
B L SWAGGER has been running in some very competitive races this season, and this may be a winnable opportunity for him to get his head in front as he is proven in testing conditions. Aupcharlie achieved the most of these on the track, however he had failed to recapture his form of last season during the autumn. His latest outing at Tinahely last month did signal he was getting close to some better form, so he could be among the pick of the dangers alongside Coolnagorna Giggs.
