FormscanBy John O'Riordan - A recent winner at this track over hurdles, SHOWURAPPRECIATION can revert to chasing to take this valuable prize. An impressive scorer on his most recent start over fences at Punchestown in January, the Jonathan Sweeny-trained eight-year-old readily exploited a lower hurdles mark here recently. Almost certainly laid out for this contest, given that his owner always has a well fancied runner every year, it is surely significant that connections rely on just the sole contender. Topweight Rokathir won't find it easy to concede weight all round but already looks a better horse over fences. A previous course and distance winner, he is proven around this testing venue. Naas runner-up Magic McColgan has to be respected for Willie Mullins.
