Two of these run in the Gigginstown colours but Joseph O’Brien’s EVISCERATING looks the one to be on. While he’s yet to hit the same heights over fences as over hurdles, he’s done more than enough to suggest he is up to winning a race like this. My Manekineko is 0-10 over fences and the senior runner in this but he was only beaten a length in a handicap at Wexford last time. The Irregular has placed three times over the larger obstacles but is hard to catch right.
