Spare Brakes was beaten five lengths by Bitview Colin over much shorter here in January but has been in much better form lately, scoring over 2m5f at Limerick. WHISKEY LULLABY (NAP) won over fences at Punchestown in January then ran well over a trip too short over timber at Naas. He's only seven and has more to offer so looks the one to beat though Emancipator has been going well over hurdles and makes his chasing debut from a lowly mark. Imperial Sachin's, a winning hurdler, showed some potential over fences before jumping poorly at Fairyhouse in November.
