GALOPIN DES CHAMPS (5) maintains an excellent record when fresh having opened previous campaign with a solid third at Punchestown beaten 2. 75L. Warrants plenty of thought as ideally placed to make a winning return. INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN (9) comes off a fifth in the G1 John Durkan Memorial Punchestown Chase over 2m3 1/2f. Upped in trip with improvement expected. FASTORSLOW (4) was also seen in the John Durkan finishing a creditable third. Proven at this level and could be in the mix. CHAMP KIELY (2) filled a minor placing in latest attempting a 2mf G3 at Naas during November. Progressive and may build on that effort.
