Going - Chase - Soft Hurdle - Yielding to Soft, soft in places. Overcast

Formscan By Michael Graham - Willie Mullins is due to saddle six horses in this race and TULLYHILL could prove best of them. He finished second on chasing debut here without landing a blow on the winner, however that horse (and stablemate Majborough) is now odds-on favourite for the Irish Arkle at the Dublin Racing Festival. Tullyhill is the choice of Paul Townend. Asian Master was just half a length behind Tullyhill in third, so is entitled to be well involved. Lisnagar Fortune is of interest after putting it all together to win well over flights in Punchestown almost a year ago. What's Up Darling has had two spins over fences and should have more horses behind him than in front of him.
