Winning pointer who made a successful start in bumpers at Musselburgh in December. In need of a stronger gallop when fifth of 15 at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft, 2/1) last month, refusing to settle, and hood now reached for.

Runner-up on last of 3 starts in Irish points but was never involved on Rules debut when well-beaten sixth of 9 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft, 28/1) in December.

€110,000 3-y-o, £220,000 4-y-o, Tunis gelding. Half-brother to French hurdle winner/chaser Joie du Net and French hurdler Junta Post. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt in November before changing hands for a hefty sum, so he's one to note on Rules debut.
Has shown encouragement when placed at this C&D both starts, not ideally placed when third in 8-runner contest (heavy, 7/2) on latest outing 6 weeks ago. Can give another good account.

Offered plenty to work on when second to useful prospect Mydaddypaddy in 14-runner bumper at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft, 17/2) on debut last year. Has since left Tom Weston for £60,000 and looks to hold leading claims on return.

Forecasts
Lirion (13/8), Jardin De Tunis (11/4), Kingsman Mail (7/2), Kilaro (4/1), C'mon So (25/1)
LIRION shaped promisingly when beaten only by an impressive winner at Huntingdon on debut and he is taken to go one better on his first start for Olly Murphy. The main danger could be six-figure purchase Jardin de Tunis, who has joined a yard capable of readying one in this sphere, ahead of Kingsman Mail.
