Honeysuckle out to complete Champion double

De Bromhead is hoping to keep his unbeaten record at the Punches. Aspire Tower and Jason The Militant will accompany their stablemate. Sharjah, runner-up in the Chelterham Champion, takes the place of Aspirate Tower. Epatante was third in her Cheltensham defence. It is her first race in Ireland. The trainer Frank Berry is pleased with her. He is the racing manager to owner JP McManus.
