FormscanBy Tom Weekes - Dual Cheltenham festival runner-up BILLAWAY reappears at a slightly later date this season and should prove good enough. A consistently smart hunter, he narrowly failed at Cheltenham in March and Punchestown in April and has previously beaten today's rivals Winged Leader three times and Stand Up And Fight twice, from three runs. Winged Leader was in contention when falling at the final fence in this race in 2021 and while he is race-fit, has plenty to find with the selection on previous meetings. Stand Up And Fight did beat the selection in November 2020 but has been well beaten by him twice since, was pulled up on his latest run and should struggle to win. Its All Guesswork and Poli Roi were both also pulled up at Down Royal over Christmas while Warriors Take was well held on his latest run. Vital Island is a five-time point-to-point winner but needs to improve to figure.
