Race preview
UCELLO CONTI has been an outstanding servant for connections over the years, mixing it with the best staying handicappers with regularity, and following a winning pipe-opener in the pointing field at Aghabullogue, he could easily open his account in the hunter chase sphere. Sidetracked scored nicely at Clonmel earlier this month and forms part of a two-pronged challenge from owner Chris Jones, with Listed winner Home Farm also engaged. Blue Templar and Gwencily Berbas are others for the shortlist.
