Willie Mullins hasn't featured in the list of winners since 2010 but has two entered here. Suave Des Champs has a stayer's pedigree so the trip and ground should suit though Patrick has chosen Eileen O, a half-sister to four winners including three who scored in bumpers. DOCTOR DUFFY has looked as though this longer trip would suit in his two runs to date and looked happy enough on the soft ground at Galway last time. His experience can carry the day here though Dancing In The Sky has been finding conditions too fast. Clouncerna made a very encouraging start over slightly shorter at Cork where he was going on at the finish so he can get into the action.
