PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
This race may be confined to non-graded winners but it has attracted a very competitive entry which is headed by the 2021 Irish National winner Freewheelin Dylan. He has not won since that 150/1 success and so preference goes to RAMILLIES who did win a Grade 3 novice chase in January when with Willie Mullins, only to lose it in the stewards room. His new stablemate Bold Enough was prolific in this sphere last season, winning eight races on the bounce, whilst Fakir Dalene has a chase mark that is just 1lb lower than the selection, having only been beaten four lengths in the Kim Muir at the 2022 Cheltenham Festival, in what was his penultimate start.
