Verdict

TOP DOG found only one too good in a competitive Fairyhouse bumper 6 months ago and now makes his first outing for a stable that's been amongst the winners, so he takes narrow preference over Nicky Henderson's newcomer Swapped. Shuil Donn, like the selection, has moved yards after an encouraging start in Ireland, so he's another one who could take a hand in what should prove to be a strong race.

  1. TOP DOG (IRE)
