PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
FOUNTAIN HOUSE was an easy six-length winner of this race 12 months ago, and having followed up in the Bishopscourt Cup itself at the Punchestown Festival since then, he looks to oppose in this. Hearts And Spades is the only horse to have won four races so far this season, and gives Ian McCarthy a strong hand in this, whilst Jetbob could be best of the rest on what will be his stable debut.
