SPANISH RISING matched his fair form on the Flat at the first attempt over hurdles when making the frame at Ballinrobe last month and, with this slightly shorter trip promising to suit, he is taken to open his account. Rosarian is feared most after her much-improved second at Kilbeggan on return, ahead of Johnny Rambo.
