PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Successful in this race 12 months ago, FOUNTAIN HOUSE is the pick of a strong entry for this as he went from strength to strength following that victory, winning a further four races, including a pair of hunter chases at Thurles and the Punchestown Festival. Knockiel Synge chased him home last year, one of three placings over this course for the now 11-year-old, but he could be up against it here with the talented track performers Fakir Doudairies, The Goffer and Chemical Energy, also featuring, as the Gordon Elliott-trained pair both having experience from last season over the Cross Country courses at Cheltenham and Punchestown.
