Eric McNamara bagged this prize 12 months ago and looks to hold prime claims again with GAELIC DES CHASTYS. Successful over fences on his penultimate run, he again ran well when runner-up from his lower hurdles mark over C&D 31 days ago and another bold bid looks on the cards. Johnny Cakes, Maciver and Younowhatimean are a trio of others fancied to be thereabouts.
