Don't Let Go won this from exactly the same mark a year ago but hasn't done much since. Eimear showed nothing in two runs over fences in 2018 but has been going well over hurdles while Ballymac Boy produced easily his best ever run behind The Trigger at Tipperary and a big run from the winner earlier would put Mags Mullins' charge in the frame. Like A Demon, three-times a winner between the flags, is 0-30 under Rules but RUDY CATRAIL made all for a very easy victory over this trip at Wexford in September. He led for a long way on his reappearance earlier this month and his regular partner's claim can see him home again.
