Verdict

French bumper winner Eglantine Du Seuil is an obvious starting point debuting for Willie Mullins with Ruby Walsh on board. She showed a pleasing attitude in registering that win last year and, despite being off since, won't lack for preparation now. The market won't miss her claims though and stablemate Suinda gives Closutton an excellent back-up. GAMBLING MISTRESS made a promising start at Roscommon last time and, with improvement likely, commands plenty respect here while three-time Flat scorer Song Of The Sky also needs attention going jumping for the first time.
