APPRECIATE IT created an excellent impression on his belated debut over fences at Punchestown 20 days ago, storming clear for just hands-and-heels riding on the run-in, and he can follow up before going onto to bigger things over fences. Top Bandit was 7 lengths behind the selection last time and can chase him home once again, with Gaelic Arc the pick of the remainder.
