PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
VALMY BAIE, a three-time winner in open company last season, was well below par when pulling-up in the Hunter Chase at Down Royal over Christmas. However he can return to winning ways here as he is a high class sort on his day. Home Farm could re-appear quickly after recording an impressive battling success at Tyrella last Saturday and he would be a notable danger. Grand Jesture won well at Loughbrickland but blotted his record once again when refusing to jump off at Down Royal, whilst Darwins Fox can be expected to step-up from his pointing debut at Tinahely in what was a very hot race.
