TEED UP (NAP), beaten narrowly when runner-up over hurdles at the fixture a year ago, went one better two days later and looks to have been laid out for this after finishing second on the Flat at Tramore three weeks ago. Willie Mullins has four entries, none of them ruled out, with Patrick on board Lot Of Joy, a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle winner who last ran in a Grade 1 back there in April. Jody Townend is on board Scaramanga, who won a Grade 1 hurdle in the USA in May. Ian Williams sends Zinc White from the UK and he won a lucrative Chester handicap in May while Burren Song still looks on a fair mark despite just failing to complete a four-timer at the Curragh. Derek O'Connor's presence in the saddle also puts Cougar in the frame.
