PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
FOUNTAIN HOUSE has not been winning by particularly far of late, but three back-to-back victories coming into this leave him as the one to beat for his in-form connections. Catalani would appear to be his biggest danger, as he is a seven-year-old with few miles on the clock. He flew home at Ballycrystal last time to chase home a horse that has won since. Of the others, Sir Argus posted a seasons-best effort at Loughanmore, but does have a quick turnaround, Big Interest would need to put his best foot forward, whilst Weespoof is new to this division but could put up a big effort.
