It's over two years since Teuchters Glory made an impressive winning debut at Galway but he's still only six and the lack of a run may not be a problem. Answering ran very well for a 66/1 chance when placed at Thurles but Jack Burke only had one rival to beat in a point at Rathcannon. Gordon Elliott has two entries with Jamie Codd on board CALDWELL POTTER, who attracted good support for his debut here in April but probably wasn't at his best. He can put that behind him and take care of Cardamon Hill, placed twice between the flags in the spring.
