Ace attacker Patrick Horgan has been named among the substitutes for Cork’s All-Ireland SHC preliminary quarter-final against Antrim in Belfast tomorrow afternoon.

In what is the sole change for the Rebels, Tim O’Mahony comes in at right corner-forward to replace Horgan while on the bench Mark Keane is named instead of the exam-tied Eoin Downey.

O’Mahony has lined-out at wing-back in recent years but came off the bench to net a goal against Tipperary in the Leesiders’ last game of the Munster round-robin series.

The Newtownshandrum clubman gets the nod from manager Kieran Kingston to start this weekend in a full-forward line that includes Alan Connolly and the in-form Conor Lehane.

Throw-in at Corrigan Park is at 2pm.

Cork (SHC prelim quarter-final v Antrim): Patrick Collins; Damien Cahalane, Robert Downey, Seán O’Donoghue;  Niall O’Leary, Ciarán Joyce, Mark Coleman; Darragh Fitzgibbon, Luke Meade; Robbie O’Flynn, Séamus Harnedy, Shane Kingston; Tim O’Mahony, Alan Connolly, Conor Lehane. 

Subs: Ger Collins, Seán O’Leary Hayes, Ger Millerick, Mark Keane, Tommy O’Connell, Conor Cahalane, Brian Roche, Shane Barrett, Patrick Horgan, Jack O’Connor, Alan Cadogan.
