BILLY LEE SWAGGER shaped as though well worth another try over 3m+ when fourth in a big-field 19.4f handicap at the Punchestown Festival in April. He shades preference ahead of the Willie Mullins-trained Straight Home, who left the impression that she would be well-served by the step up to this trip when fourth at around 2¾m last time. Clodders Dream could also have a part to play.
