In depth
Verdict
Willie Mullins and Jody Townend are a winning combination and PURE NOTIONS, a half-sister to four winners, can make a successful debut. Armed And Fabulous came in for strong support at Punchestown on New Year's Eve but pulled too hard. She'll have come on for the experience while Penny Glory has joined John Kiely after a fair run here last April. Getaway Rua hasn't run since summer 2021 but Phils Choice, who has been placed in his last four bumpers, has had no luck in two starts over hurdles.
