KEY HEADLINES
Jim McGrath has backed two horses ante-post TRIFOLIUM (Arkle) and TAQUIN DU SEUIL (JLT).
Has two in mind for handicaps. NEVER ENOUGH TIME awaiting confirmation of race and IF IN DOUBT Pertemps Final. Also believes MELODIC RENDEVOUZ way too big for Champion Hurdle if soft. ANNIE POWER an absolute machine better than QUEVEGA and best mare since Dawn Run
Niall Hannity is very keen on KINGS PALACE for Albert Bartlett and still has hopes for ROCK ON RUBY in the Arkle. He, Sean and audience keen on OUR CONOR for the Champion Hurdle.
Sean Quinn confirmed his fathers two runners for the Triumph with RUTHERGLEN to be ridden by Jason McGuire and PEARL CASTLE will miss the race if going turns soft and head to Aintree where it will go close on good or better ground.
SIZING EUROPE the each way call for Champion Chase, Henry De Bromhead bullish in recent Irish preview
Further strong message for INDIAN CASTLE in the Kim Muir.
