Point-to-point winner justified odds-on to score in good enough fashion on bumper bow at Leopardstown. Top connections will anticipate another good showing.
Was second favourite behind highly-promising Getabird in Fairyhouse bumper in early December, didn't run as market suggested and needs a big step forward to take this.
Forecasts
Carter Mckay (8/13), West Coast Time (9/4), Isodon (11/2), Stowaway Forever (20/1)
This looks a two-horse race between the two last time out bumper scorers. Carter Mckay did the job nicely at Leopardstown and is greatly respected representing the champion trainer but preference is for WEST COAST TIME. There was much to like about his Cork win last month where he careered away from the field. His rider takes a useful 5lb off his back for this and he can continue his unbeaten start. Stowaway Forever should be better than his debut effort and may beat home Isodon.
