FormscanBy Michael Graham - BURROWS SAINT looks a big price at 11/1 at the time of writing. Willie Mullins is looking forward to the Irish Grand National winner competing back in novice company on his seasonal reappearance. This two and a half mile trip is going to take plenty of getting on soft ground and he will certainly jump from fence to fence and stay well. It was only three starts ago that he won a beginners' chase over two and a half miles in Gowran Park, before successfully stepping up to an extended three miles in Limerick and then three mile five furlongs in the Irish Grand National at this track. Samcro strolled in by an impressive 17 lengths in a beginners' chase at Down Royal on his first crack at fences. He is well over the lung infection which ruined last season for him. He is ante-post favourite for the JLT and should have a lucrative career over fences. He is a horse that really grabs the public imagination, particularly when he won the Grade 1 Ballymore Novices' Hurdle at last year's Cheltenham Festival. Fakir D'oudairies has been chalked up as the overnight favourite after he put Melon away in a beginners' chase at Navan earlier in the month. That entitles him to plenty of respect, however, this is a step up in trip for him. The four-timer-seeking Ronald Pump is a credit to Matthew Smith. He made a winning transition to fences when last seen over two miles five at this venue. That was a decent beginners' chase and he strode right away after the second last. He is well worth a try in this company, especially in Fairyhouse where he is three from four in his career.
