WOLF PRINCE arrives in winning form having scored over timber at Punchestown last week. His yard is in excellent form and he can complete a quick double. Autumn Evening won a Grade B handicap hurdle at the Listowel Festival last month and is an obvious threat while Sea Appeal scored over the trip at Listowel and, though 9lb higher, is progressing fast enough to get into contention. Sunniyra and Franno both finished third over 1m4f at the Curragh last week and are at the right end of the handicap to make their presence felt.
