Aristotle gelding whose dam is related to a few point-to-point winners. Has appeared to lack stamina in three bumpers before slight improvement on maiden hurdle debut last month. Looks up against it here.

Denham Red gelding out of a Dark Moondancer mare related to Un De Sceaux. Bought for €100,000 for powerful stable. Likely to be a warm order here.

2/1
Mahler gelding out of Tariana who cost €80,000 as a three-year-old. Well beaten on bumper debut at Navan last month. Market likely to be best guide.

False Getaway
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr R O Harding(3)| T: M Hourigan

Has failed to complete in two point-to-point starts and requires a chunk of improvement to play a role here.

66/1

Forecasts

Vent D'Automne (13/8), Where Eagles Dare (2/1), The Big Lense (3/1), Dont Go Mad (12/1), Deal With It (16/1), Teddy's Acre (25/1), False Getaway (50/1), Sir Pimpernel (50/1), Janeyevan (66/1)

Verdict

The €100,000 purchase for Andrea and Graham Wylie VENT D'AUTOMNE can build on his debut second in a Fairyhouse point-to-point when last seen in April 2016, landing the closing race here for the Patrick and Willie Mullins combination. Where Eagles Dare and The Big Lense can give the selection the most to think about.
  1. Vent D'Automne
  2. Where Eagles Dare
  3. The Big Lense
