FAMEAFTERTHEGLORY won a point and only found one too good at Punchestown on his Rules debut, so he's fancied to open his Rules account at the second time of asking. Top Bandit should be thereabouts once more and, given he was well fancied prior to an underwhelming debut, Glengouly is another one to consider.
