Having finished a promising fourth in what is traditionally a strong bumper at Fairyhouse last spring, BOEDIC ultimately shaped as if needing the run more than the market anticipated when fifth in a Thurles maiden hurdle 31 days ago. However, he's just the type to leave that in his wake and could be the way to go for his top stable. Whinney Hill sets the standard on the pick of his hurdling exploits and is also considered. Star Of The Week and Sense of Occasion complete the shortlist.
