Third Time Lucky has had a recent run at Wolverhampton and jockey bookings suggest the Fahey charge is preferred to Carnageo. Aussie Valentine has found one too good in this for the last three years and finished ahead of Canary Row and Onenightidreamed last season while the latter was in front of Pincheck when runner-up at Cork subsequently. Lucky Mistake has a shout on last year’s win at Leopardstown while On The Go Again landed a hat-trick on the Flat last season but has been hurdling without success so far this year. Ringside Humour and Sorelle Delle Rose are not easily dismissed representing powerful yards but Pat Smullen abandons the latter for SALTONSTALL. The Godolphin charge showed promise as a two-year-old but was gelded having disappointed on his only start last term - Mick Halford will have him ready for action.
