Verdict
TOTAL RECALL last ran over hurdles in 2016 but has subsequently improved massively over fences since joining Willie Mullins, winning a Grade 3 handicap at Newbury in December. He reverts to the smaller obstacles on a 31lb lower mark and looks thrown in. A Great View was racing over this trip for the first time when just failing to catch Mine Now here over Christmas while Flawless Escape beat a decent field of maidens at the same meeting and starts out in handicaps after just two runs over timber. Lite Duties, who completed a hat-trick back in 2014, was having his first run for almost three years when landing a Cork handicap a month ago so he's respected despite an 8lb rise.
