19:55 Michael Linehan Heart Safe Charity Hunters Chase

Race preview

ANNAMIX has enjoyed a renaissance of late and should be able to account for his four rivals. He took the scalp of both Billaway and Ferns Lock when springing a surprise at the Fairyhouse Easter Festival. Making steady headway in the Champion Hunters Chase at Punchestown, he was badly hampered three out and subsequently pulled up after losing all chance. At the age of 15, Fr Humphrey is amazingly bidding for a hat-trick and warrants the utmost respect for trainer/owner/rider Niamh Hennessy. He shocked all in attendance when comfortably beating Rocky's Howya on his penultimate start at Dromahane, with that one unbeaten in his seven prior point-to-point starts this season, while also finishing a close-up fourth in the Foxhunters at the Cheltenham Festival. The veteran showed that success was no fluke by following-up at Stowlin and it'll be interesting to see how he fares, returning to the track for the first time in well over two years. Somptueux also has claims with Ross Berry taking 7lb off. Fitted with cheekpieces for the first time, he was still in front when crashing out two fences from home at Cork on Easter Monday.
