GRANGECLARE NATIVE was an impressive winner on his point-to-point debut at Curraghmore in April and while he lacks the experience of some of his rivals, the hefty price tag paid for him suggests he may be highly regarded and the yard tend to do well in these races. Jungle Junction sets the form standard given his most recent two efforts and looks to be the main rival if progressing once again, while Farmix and Coolbawn Lad and severely unexposed in this sphere and should do better from whatever they achieve in this.
