Spancilhill trainer Noel Glynn sees his horse, Becauseicouldntsee run in that one – the horse has twice finished second in races at the festival.

Tubber’s Derek O’Connor also seeks to make up for yesterday’s disappointment in the same race. 

Having fallen from Rival Destruval while in contention in yesterday’s opener, O’Connor takes charge of Donald McCain’s Super Duty, the likely favourite.

Meanwhile, A New Story of the Ennis-based Storey’s Over Syndicate will take part in the rescheduled Glenfarclas Chase over the Cross Country fences at 5:15.
