In a race resembling a minefield for punters the vote goes to DALY TIGER for Noel Meade. This son of Tiger Groom won a bumper on debut where fellow leading contender Whatchamacallit's conqueror finished second before registering a very solid effort over hurdles behind a smart Willie Mullins inmate. Whatchamacallit is considered the biggest threat based on his smart second on debut back in April while Acronym is the most fancied of a whole raft of hurdles newcomers for the all-conquering Gordon Elliott.
