Grand Annual Chase Tips

DON’T TOUCH IT won at the Punchestown Festival last season when sporting first time cheekpieces. He has been missing them since, refitted by Jessie Harrington now he is back on a big stage. Handles deep ground fine, looks to have been laid out for this for an owner who has a sparkling record in the contest in recent years. Bouvreuil always goes well at this track, he’ll appreciate the ground making this a proper test at the trip, while Dresden has been in sparkling form on deep ground, still capable from this mark. Born Survivor has a cracking record fresh and makes each way appeal for the fourth place.
