5/2

Off the mark at the eighth attempt when victorious in a 2m4f Roscommon (good) bumper earlier this month. Had previously run well in two maiden hurdles including when 15L second at Punchestown (heavy) over an extended 2m in February and likely to be involved in the finish once more.

Form:

25/1

9/1

Winner of a bumper at Thurles (heavy) in January 2015 and placed twice over hurdles last winter. Finished fifth over an extended 2m3f at Kilbeggan (yielding) last week and worth a check in the market here.

Forecasts

Go Another One (11/10), Mr Showtime (5/2), Knockmaole Boy (4/1), Valgor Du Ronceray (9/1), Brave Poppy (16/1), Novano (25/1), Carrigready (25/1), Rocket Punch (25/1), Chosen Hour (33/1), Apache Gold (33/1), U S Navy Seal (40/1), Wilkie Collins (50/1), Mickey Flanagan (50/1), Call Of The Loon (50/1), Presenting Court (100/1), Hatters Hero (100/1), Bondi Bull (200/1), Nineteensixteen (200/1)

MR SHOWTIME finished runner-up in a maiden hurdle on his penultimate outing prior to taking a Roscommon bumper earlier this month. The selection hails from a leading stable and can get the better of Knockmaole Boy who has finished runner-up in two of his three hurdle races to date and was twice a winner on the Flat. Of the remainder Go Another One has shown a decent level of form in bumpers and can claim third on his hurdling debut.
