Point-to-point winner but beaten four times in that sphere since his latest start over regulation fences when unseating on this card 12 months ago. Likely to struggle in this contest.
Useful horse on his day and come up against some classy rivals over fences including when third at Punchestown (yielding-to-soft) last time out. Looks likely to play a leading role today.
Successful in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown (2m2f, good) in January but has fallen on both chase outings to date and will need to brush up on his jumping if he's to take a hand today.
Victorious twice over hurdles and put in good efforts in all three chase starts so far. Finished runner-up at Fairyhouse (2m5f, soft) on the most recent of those and is likely to prove hard to beat on this occasion.
Forecasts
Sutton Manor (8/11), Burgas (11/8), Justmemyselfandi (16/1), Benarty Hill (33/1)
Trainer Gordon Elliott took this contest with a useful individual two years ago and his SUTTON MANOR can provide the handler with a fourth victory in this particular contest. The selection has been running well in similar races to this and can get the better of Burgas today who is another to have shown good form over fences so far while Justmemyselfandi can get the better of Benarty Hill in the battle for third.
- Sutton Manor
- Burgas
- Justmemyselfandi
