Willie Mullins' Saint Sam is very strong in the market for the extended 2m3f hurdle at 1.57pm.

He reverts back to hurdles after three runs in Grade One company over fences, the best of which resulted in a third place in the Irish Arkle at Leopardstown in February. He was a Grade 1 runner-up over flights in 2021.

This is his seasonal reappearance and the market is very positive as he trades around 7/4 from 7/2.

Mags Mullins' newcomer Armed And Fabulous has attracted plenty of support in the bumper.
