J: Daniel King

T: Thomas Cooper

Won Limerick Listed bumper two years ago and a cracking effort when third in the Champion Bumper (good to soft; Sortudo and No Drama This End behind) at last season's Cheltenham Festival; disappointed on first two starts over hurdles but he rediscovered his groove in a newly fitted tongue-tie when second to King Rasko Grey at Limerick (2m, soft to heavy) in December before beating 15 others to win at Naas (about 2m2f, heavy) last time; this forecast better ground should be fine and he's not one to dismiss lightly.

T: Thomas Cooper

Dual bumper winner and third in last year's Cheltenham bumper; two disappointing hurdle runs before a much better effort at when chasing home a Willie Mullins-trained horse at Limerick last time; the third horse had won a bumper for Mullins, and fourth-placed I Started A Joke was odds-on when winning at Punchestown subsequently.

J: Sam Ewing

T: Thomas Cooper

Dual-bumper winner (including listed) and superb effort to finish a 3l third behind Bambino Fever in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham in March; last run too bad to be true and he remains a horse with considerable potential now switched to hurdles.
