It's clicked for him in the pointing field lately, winning twice this year. Stable has won this race on multiple occasions so he's got to be high on the shortlist on this Rules debut.

Forecasts

Good Bye Sam (7/4), De Nordener (7/4), Vital Island (7/2), Michael's Pick (14/1), Tech Talk (16/1), Loggan Lady (28/1), Koyote (28/1), Beyond Redemption (33/1), Like A Demon (50/1), Inchidaly Copper (50/1), Ballinasilla (80/1), Ihavent A Clue (80/1), Transprint (80/1), How's Trix (125/1), Dubai Dandy (125/1)

Verdict

This could develop into a duel between the useful GOOD BYE SAM and Rules debutant De Nordener. The latter has won been successful in points and represents a stable with a good record in this event, but he might just lack the class of Willie Mullins' representative, who gets the marginal vote. Vital Island is the pick of the remainder.
