My Great Mate, representing Willie Mullins and Paul Townend, might prove the best on the final day of the Listowel festival, a card which shares the weekend spotlight with big-money action at the Curragh both today and tomorrow.

A dual bumper-winner (at Galway and Punchestown), this grey failed to make an impact in graded bumper action, but has looked a solid prospect in three outings over obstacles.
