16/1

Reverts to bumpers following a couple of disappointing appearances in maiden hurdles. Worth a market check for a yard that do well in this sphere.

100/1

Had produced a number of third-rate performances in three point-to-point contests and was a one-paced fifth of eight in a Limerick bumper last month. Has plenty to prove here.

5/1

Lauro gelding out of a Video Rock mare bought for €235,000 and sure to be of interest on debut for powerful connections.

5/2

Getaway gelding cost €30,000 who is related to Saturday winner Getabird and produced a promising performance on debut when third of 11 in a Punchestown bumper. Another bold show looks likely.

7/1

Failed to complete in three point-to-points before a promising debut beaten 8¾L in a Leopardstown bumper on St Stephens Day. Market should be informative.

20/1

Last run can be ruled out following an encouraging debut in a Punchestown bumper beaten 9½L but others hold stronger profile.

Form:

Tidal River

Age: 5| Weight: 0-0| J: Ms K Walsh| T: A Mullins

14/1

Flemensfirth gelding out of a Buckskin mare related to Tidal Bay, Imperial Commander and impressive Saturday winner Waiting Patiently. Not easy to discount with Katie Walsh on board.

Form:

Tornado Flyer

Age: 5| Weight: 0-0| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

1/1

€63,000 purchase as a three-year-old related to multiple winners Muirhead, Joe Lively and Saturday victor Waiting Patiently. Likely to be a warm order here.

50/1

Beneficial gelding out of a Gothland mare well beaten and no impression eighth of 12 eventually 67L adrift of the winner at Leopardstown over Christmas. Hard to construct a case for him.

Forecasts

Tornado Flyer (1/1), Getaway John (5/2), Dream Conti (5/1), Pilot Station (7/1), Myth Buster (8/1), Tidal River (14/1), Curious Times (16/1), The Shunter (20/1), Touchedbyanangel (50/1), Doctor P's Getaway (100/1)

A case can be made for debutante's Tornado Flyer, Myth Buster and the expensive Dream Conti but the verdict goes to the experience of GETAWAY JOHN who can build on his third of 11 when last seen at Punchestown in February and with the trainer/jockey combination who boast a 30% win strike rate.
