Another Grade 2 dominated by Willie Mullins over the years and KARNIQUET looks the pick of his half-dozen. He ran well when fourth in the Supreme, form that was boosted at Aintree, and should be hard to beat with a repeat. Gaucher is another strong contender for the yard, while Downmexicoway should have more to offer for Henry de Bromhead.

    Smart hurdler. Career best when winning 8-runner Kingsfurze Novices' Hurdle at Naas (16f, soft, 20/1) under this rider 28 days ago by 8½ lengths from Goraibhmaithagat, going with enthusiasm. Good shout again despite the penalty.

    Made an impressive hurdling debut at Punchestown in May before winning valuable handicap on level at Royal Ascot. Off 5 months, shaped as if amiss when tailed-off last of 8 to Gaucher in Kingsfurze Novices' Hurdle at Naas (16f, soft, 4/1) 28 days ago.
