Verdict

GOLDEN SON made up into a smart hurdler during his time in France, and having displayed promise on his sole start over fences when last seen 18 months ago, he could well be worth siding with to make a winning return with the prospect of more to come in this sphere for his powerful yard. Iroko had a fine season over hurdles last term and is feared along with Kilbeg King. Dual point-scorer Ballymackie is one to monitor closely in the betting on Rules debut
