Half Nutz
Six-time winner whose slow-starting tendency is a worry; not a bad run when staying on for fifth over C&D on latest; might struggled to turn the tables on third-placed Staywitherjohnny.

From the connections
“Half Nutz is very straightforward but it just didn't fall right for him a few times. I was very happy with the way he ran in Listowel, he didn't get much of a run there. He's a horse that has to be ridden for luck, it didn't happen in Listowel but it happened today - Johnny Murtagh, trainer.”
“We tried him over five and Wayne got off him the last day and said this was his trip. He's improving. Last year he was running a bit free and just a bit hard on himself but now he's as sweet as a nut. We could try him over seven now if something comes up as he's much easier to ride - trainer Sheila Lavery.”
