Verdict

The vote goes to BRONN, who had plenty up his sleeve to make a winning start in bumpers for Stuart Crawford at Ballinrobe back in April. He's been picked up by top connections since, so he's fancied to make a winning start over timber for Willie Mullins. One Last Tango showed promise when fourth on hurdling debut so he could provide the main threat, ahead of Noble Birth and Killer Mode.

  1. BRONN (IRE)
  2. ONE LAST TANGO (IRE)
  3. NOBLE BIRTH
