Forecasts

Verdict

VALSORPRESA shaped better than the bare result in a bumper last time and is worth another chance to confirm hurdle-debut promise back in this sphere. Bowmore stepped up on debut when fifth in a big field at Leopardstown and rates a serious threat with further improvement on the cards, with Master Splinter best of the others.
