Race preview
MOUDAN relishes testing ground, winning twice over hurdles early last year, and opened his account over fences at the Limerick Christmas meeting. That form has been advertised since and Eoghan Finegan claims a valuable 7lb. Cappucino won a bumper and a maiden hurdle and has been switched to fences this season, going close at Tramore last time. Liz Doyle's charge was touched off by Rockbrook, who has won again since, while Kilbrin Rocco is one to consider after justifying favouritism at Clonmel. Glenashling and Big Stage are others to note.
