PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
SIR TOPHAM HATT was no match for a hunter chase-placed rival at Punchestown earlier in the month, however he was returning from an absence of over a year, and is entitled to step forward from it. This would look to be his for the taking. Vicomte Le Brave has lost his way somewhat of late, with a change of stables not having the desired effect with his Ballindenisk non-completion last time, but if he could bounce back to form, he has a host of placed form in the book. The 83-rated hurdler still held claims on his pointing debut at Comea, whilst the newcomer St Michaels Well, is a half-brother to Mistymal, who won a point-to-point for the same connections.
