Verdict

KOPEK DES BORDES looks a hugely talented prospect switching to fences after establishing himself as a top-class hurdler with a Grade 1 victory at Cheltenham. Despite jumping issues when last seen at Punchestown, he has clear potential to excel over the larger obstacles. Lovely Hurling quickly developed into a useful hurdler last term and is the obvious threat.

  2. LOVELY HURLING (IRE)
