PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Just a head separated I MASKED DU POTIER and Pat Coyne when they finished first and second in a similar contest at Nenagh in early March and the former will be out to re-confirm that form here having won twice since, including at Fairyhouse a fortnight ago. Ramillies was behind the selection at Quakerstown last month, which could leave Dylan Oak as the place contender.
