Verdict

Little to go on so HARA KIRI is taken to make a winning start for leading trainer Willie Mullins, who has taken 8 of the last 13 runnings of this bumper. Perceval Legallois, Old Soul and Modreeney all look likely types on paper and the market should be a good indicator of what to expect.

  1. HARA KIRI (FR)
  2. PERCEVAL LEGALLOIS (FR)
  3. OLD SOUL (FR)
