Aughnacuraveel - Bit of a mouthful and I'm not even sure of the pronunciation myself but it shouldn't stop him running a big race. He's a dual point-winner whilst none of todays rivals have won a race of any nature as yet and finished fourth in the big pointers bumper at this meeting last year - plenty of good winners in front of him (Ad Idem 2nd in the Novices Final on Sunday to name one) and behind (Mr Cracker - good graded class novice this year, and the easy winner of a Hunter Chase yday who's name escapes me). He's been disappointing twice since when favourite but was very highly regarded by John Kiely when they had him in the yard - his new yard are mainly a pointing yard but from only 2 runners under rules thus far in Ireland this season they've had a winner (top Hunter Chaser Kilty Storm). 12/1 looks a good each-way bet to me and I expect him to run well on a track he's performed well on before and the heavy ground should play to his stamina strengths.
