Verdict

A case of quantity over quality with only a handful making any serious appeal, French-import BORN IN PURPLE selected to make a winning start over hurdles for champion trainer Willie Mullins. Como Park needs to leave a lesser effort behind, but he heads up the dangers now tongue tied having shaped promisingly first time up over timber at Navan in March. Rockview Consort and Mr Globalist round off the shortlist.

  1. BORN IN PURPLE (FR)
  2. COMO PARK (IRE)
  3. ROCKVIEW CONSORT
