yeah spotted it off irishracing.com

"JT can't do the weight on Heads Onthe Ground (10st 4lb) so it makes sense for him to ride Garde Champetre and Nina to switch to the other horse," said Bolger.

"I'm sure if Heads Onthe Ground had a bit more weight it would have been the other way round, but Nina and JT just sort it out between themselves and they're a good team.

"Garde did it well again the last day but I think this is quite a hot race. Horses like Maljimar, Cornish Sett and Royal County Star are all good, so it's going to be tough for our horse with all that weight.

"Then again, he's got the weight for a reason and is obviously very good round there.

"I was a bit surprised Heads On The Ground ran so well last time but he has been in good form since and is better off at the weights with Garde Champetre this time.

"Nina won on him at the Festival a couple of years ago, so she knows the horse well.

"There wouldn't be a lot between the two of them.

"We also run Freneys Well, who ran well enough behind Dunguib over hurdles last time - even though he was about a hurdle behind!

"He's well, but he's probably more of a horse for the spring."

Agree mp especially if the horse settles. I'll be pressing the back button in running if he does.
