WRECKING BALL PAUL shaped with definite promise when third in a big-field Naas novice hurdle on debut 18 days ago and, with progress anticipated with that under his belt, he's fancied to make a bold bid to get off the mark. Imperial Ruler landed his sole start in bumpers last spring and is feared now hurdling, along with Perceval Legallois who remains the type to do better.
