Although confidence can't be high surrounding FLAME BEARER after his last 2 displays there's still time for it to all come together for the Willie Mullins yard and he's given one more chance. Sole Pretender was in good form when last seen in the autumn and might provide the main threat ahead of recent Flying Bolt winner Indiana Jones.
