PREVIEW
This preview is for members only...
Successful in this race 12 months ago, CARNFUNNOCK made up some good late ground at Down Royal over Christmas to finish sixth, beaten just six lengths, and the Curraghmore winner could well double his tally for the season. There were some more promising signs from the former Irish Gold Cup winner Conflated in tough conditions at Aghabullogue a fortnight ago, whilst Ballyphilip is entitled to have stepped forward from his return to action when second in Turtulla.
