Willie Mullins loves this race and goes for it big-time with seven entries. Ruby has chosen Eglantine Du Seuil and the 50/1 Cheltenham winner will be well supported to go in again as that was only her third start over timber. He probably wouldn't have been able to ride Sancta Simona as Mark Walsh rides for J P McManus, though his mount was pulled up in that Cheltenham event. Stable companion Salsaretta ran very well in the Albert Bartlett and isn't out of this while Jonjo O'Neill sends Annie Mc from the UK and she was an impressive winner in a novices' handicap at Newbury, though she'll need more here. Henry De Bromhead kept HONEYSUCKLE away from Cheltenham and it can pay dividends. She looked a real prospect when storming away with a Grade 3 here in January and can take the step up in grade in her stride.
