Preview killarney 11th May
Your Busy returns to Killarney to attempt back-to-back victories in the McSweeney Arms Hotel Killarney National Handicap Chase.
James Nash's grand servant may be 12 now but he arrives on the back of a career-best effort when just denied by Duke Of Lucca in a competitive handicap on the Aintree Grand National card.
He heads the weights, followed by last year's third Usuel Smurfer, with recent Tipperary winner Never Complain, Kilbeggan victor Ravished, If Not For You and Federici other major players in a typically competitive renewal.
Simonsig may not be coming over for the Laurels Pub & Restaurant Hurdle but the horse he beat in the 2013 Arkle, Baily Green brings class to proceedings if turning out again after Sunday's engagement here.
Mouse Morris's nine-year-old showed that plenty of his quality remains when chasing home Felix Yonger in the Grade One BoyleSports Champion Chase at the Punchestown Festival.
Ted Veale has also been keeping top company over the larger obstacles and made the frame behind Un De Sceaux at Punchestown, so is an obvious danger.
Azorian came up short in the Ryanair Gold Cup but performed much better in a handicap at Punchestown and forms part of an interesting sextet assembled for the Malton Novice Chase.
Tennis Cap was very disappointing when pulled up in Azorian's race 10 days ago but heads a list of threats that also includes Shesaportrait, who beat all bar the exciting Vroum Vroum Mag in a Limerick Grade Two.
The Dan Linehan's Bar And B & B Hunters Chase was claimed by On The Fringe 12 months ago and, in his absence this year, Warne has an opportunity to boost his confidence having contested races won by the top hunter the last twice.
A touch of quality is apparent in the opening Killarney Vintners Maiden Hurdle (5.05) too, with Aidan O'Brien giving his Flat Listed winner Chamonix a try over obstacles.
