PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
HUNTERS YARN was unable to double up at Dromahane over Christmas, but his connections will be seeking to swiftly put that right. Big Interest faded into eighth position having made the running in the Down Royal Hunter Chase at Christmas, but the former Joseph OReilly winner is likely better than that. Ballyphilip has not been seen in competitive action since a rare disappointing performance at Necarne in May. If bouncing back, he should be a big threat, whilst Keep Me Posted was only beaten by five lengths in this race last year and is likely next best.
