A hat-trick of seconds looks unlikely for DAYS WITHOUT END, who showed good form at Galway recently behind a Willie Mullins-trained favourite. A couple of winners have come out of the beaten horses and this looks a guilt-edged chance with the champion jockey on board. Warlike Intent looks the principle threat, with Challow another that has shown promise before in this code.
