1/10
One of the leading bumper performers of the 2023/24 season who has acquitted himself well in both starts over hurdles since returning from an absence this term, latterly when very good second of 11 in novice at Leopardstown (20.5f, good to soft) 40 days ago. Looks the one to beat.

Forecasts

Jalon D'oudairies (1/10), Poetisa (11/8), Healys Pub (5/1), It's Bobsled Time (9/1), Umpire's Call (18/1), Awordinyourear (33/1), Private Policy (50/1), Scathach (50/1), Deise Crystal (66/1), Blue Moon Boy (66/1), Ballindenisk (100/1), Ina Mina (125/1), Nebraska Brave (125/1)

Verdict

Dual bumper winner JALON D'OUDAIRIES built on his encouraging hurdles bow when runner-up at Leopardstown last time and likely has more to give yet. He gets the nod. Poetisa could improve significantly from her Punchestown hurdles debut and looks the obvious danger, whilst Healys Pub can also make his presence felt.
