A GREAT VIEW 25/1 Punchestown 6:00 Has won this race twice in the past off higher marks and it is quite likely that this has been the target all season. His mark has dropped steadily all season to a point where he is well handicapped if he isn’t on the decline. Favourite track and also has his favourite jockey back in the saddle.
