It's difficult to get away from the chances of the Tony Mullins-trained PARTY PLAYBOY as the gelding returns to hurdling following a number of spins on the Flat last month. Winner of a 20-runner handicap at Down Royal on his last start over timber the five-year-old can get the better of the Willie Mullins-trained, Suinda, the hat-trick seeking Celtic Dancer and Neverushacon for the Jessica Harrington yard.
