Odds
Horse A-Z
Gelding by Doyen out of a Shernazar mare and related to Kumbeshwar and multiple winner Valdez. Beaten and no impression over 1½f out on debut at the end of January. Will need to improve here.
2
Horse silk
50/1
Placed twice in point-to-point company in the autumn but finished well beaten over hurdles at Punchestown on his rules debut before an 80L defeat at Fairyhouse in January and others make more appeal.
3
Horse silk
33/1
Gelding by Zambezi Sun cost connections £68,000 at the 2016 sales. Half-brother to winning Flat performer Bubble Sea and a couple of horses placed over hurdles. Beaten 33L on maiden hurdle debut and better expected here.
4
Horse silk
6/1
Pulled-up in two point-to-point efforts before a 29L defeat fifth of 15 at Fairyhouse in December on bumper debut. More expected here with significant jockey booking.
Weakened over 2f out on a disappointing debut run at Punchestown in October when seventh of 12 beaten 62L. Looks opposable.
6
Horse silk
16/1
Aristotle gelding whose dam is related to a few point-to-point winners. Well beaten on debut in a bumper at Punchestown before a 12½L defeat at Cork in January and likely to be found wanting again.
7
Horse silk
15/8
Getaway gelding is a half-brother to bumper winner/2m2f hurdle winner Lord Adare. Promising third of 10 beaten 3L in a Fairyhouse bumper on debut last month. Another bold show likely here.
8
Horse silk
1/1
Beaten favourite on all three career bumper starts including on two occasions this season. Likely to be a warm order once again but could be in the last chance saloon.

Forecasts

Voix Des Tiep (1/1), Thosedaysaregone (15/8), Extrapolate (6/1), Cairnhill (14/1), Sam Chisolm (14/1), Teddy's Acre (16/1), Desir Du Large (33/1), Cooldine Bog (50/1)

Verdict

With Voix Des Tiep already beaten in three bumpers as favourite preference in the closer is for the Charles Byrnes-trained THOSEDAYSAREGONE who finished a promising third of 10 beaten 3L adrift of Sometime Soon and can improve once again here. The booking of Nina Carberry is eye-catching and Extrapolate can hit the frame at a price.
  1. Thosedaysaregone
  2. Extrapolate
  3. Voix Des Tiep
