Race preview
SPARKLING WIT is a fascinating newcomer, being a full-brother to Gold Cup winner Gaelic Warrior. He is sure to know his job first time up and Willie Mullins has landed the last two renewals of this contest. Muckanagh Lough is probably the pick of those with previous experience. The Elusive Pimpernel gelding chased home a potentially smart type in a Leopardstown bumper over Christmas and has since made the switch to Pat Foley. Too Hot To Trot, narrowly defeated on his sole outing in a point-to-point, is another to note on his first outing for Henry de Bromhead.
