Verdict

The eagerly awaited return of the 2016 Irish Champion Bumper winner BLOW BY BLOW. He missed the entire campaign last season, and therefore has an 18 month plus absence to overcome on his hurdles debut, but all being well, he should possess far too much ability for this relatively modest bunch of rivals, and get off to the perfect start over obstacles for Gordon Elliott, Jack Kennedy and Gigginstown House Stud.
