Billy Lee Swagger
Two-time winner over hurdles; won easily off 9lb lower at Fairyhouse in November (20.5f, yld-sft); ran better than the bare result off this mark at Punchestown latest (raced wide); best form on soft, however, so could do with plenty of rain.

From the connections
“Billy Lee Swagger gurgled all the way up the straight. I probably had the wrong bit in his mouth as he'd never done it before. I was really happy with him and he was working really well. The day he was fourth in the maiden hurdle at Gowran was a good run and I thought he'd go on the ground here - Philip Rothwell, trainer.”
