Very little to go on here. Andiamos hasn't been running well over hurdles but winning point-to-pointer Desertmore View had a recent run over timber to put him straight and is one to note. Killdunne has always looked as though he would do better over the bigger obstacles. and Stoney has shown the occasional glimpse of the kind of form that would see him in the hunt. The five-year-old Enjoy Responsibility has a victory between the flags to his credit and will be ready for this after some decent runs over hurdles but the vote goes to OLD CASTLETOWN. Ted Walsh' charge has shown ability in point-to-points and ran well enough over hurdles at Tipperary a fortnight ago to suggest this will be within his capabilities.
