A repeat of the form CHAMPAGNE ADMIRAL showed when second at Fairyhouse a couple of weeks ago will likely be good enough to see him make it third time lucky over hurdles. Paul Nolan's Chiefs Kingdom looks the chief threat on the back of his Clonmel second. Ballycallan King and Simpletwistoffaith are others who could have a say.
