PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Sam Curling could add to his 32 winners so far this season in this, as his COOLCULLEN and Glenmalure Flyer have both been knocking on the door for some time, with a combined seven placed finishes between them from this season alone. The 83-rated hurdler Firstupbestdressed did not get very far on his chasing debut at Downpatrick in August, but on the pick of his track form he would not be without his chances against the Curling pair.
