Verdict

Henry de Bromhead kicked off the Festival in style on Tuesday and he can bring down the curtain with WATERFORD WHISPERS, who is improving in leaps and bounds and can have his runner-up effort at Leopardstown over Christmas upgraded given the race wasn't run to suit. Quai de Bourbon is 2-2 for Willie Mullins and he can provide most resistance now handicapping, with last year's runner-up No Ordinary Joe rounding off the shortlist despite his yard's much publicised exasperating week.

  1. WATERFORD WHISPERS (IRE)
  2. QUAI DE BOURBON (FR)
  3. NO ORDINARY JOE (IRE)
