The Dot Love – trained Fiddler Of Dooney has filled the runner-up berth in the points sphere twice already this season, however the son of Yeats bid to bounce back from a disappointing run last time at Punchestown here.
My Oaklahome and Nabraska have both broken their maiden tags this season and these two six-year-old's could have a role to play here.
