PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
CARNFUNNOCK could make it a worthwhile trip for Larne for his connections, after he put up a big effort to finish sixth in the Hunter Chase at the Cheltenham Festival. He had won consecutive open races before that, and should return to winning ways in this. The Great Unknown has an easier alternative in Fairyhouse 24 hours later, but if showing up for this she would certainly put up a bold showing after her Quakerstown win, where she comfortably had the measure of the potentially re-opposing I Masked Du Potier.
