PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Pat Doyle has been doing particularly well in the open division this season, with HUNTERS YARN among his leading lights having already won at Moig South, Aghabullogue and Dungarvan, and he could be the answer to this. Stablemate Magic Sadler was unlucky not to get any further than the first at Thurles last month when the warm favourite for a Hunter Chase, and only a short head separated him and Solitary Man at Castletown-Geoghegan back on the opening weekend of the season. They could reoppose here.
