Rely on front-running Sweet Kiln to deliver

THE Kilnaleck Maiden at Navan this afternoon sees the return to action of former Cheltenham Supreme Novices’ Hurdle hero Back In Front.

Edward O’Grady’s gelding put up a stunning display at the Festival last year to score by ten lengths and hopes were high he would develop into a genuine Champion Hurdle candidate.

But after finishing a disappointing fifth behind Golden Cross at Leopardstown at Christmas, Back In Front wasn’t seen again.
