Verdict

The form of the big-field bumper in which JOYEUX VIVO was a promising third at Punchestown on debut in April looks pretty decent. He is taken to make a winning start over hurdles, perhaps at the chief expense of Cut The Rope, who found just one too good in an 18-runner Limerick maiden hurdle last month and is open to improvement. Newcomers Beckett Rock and Nathan Wells both need a close look in the betting.

  1. JOYEUX VIVO (FR)
  2. CUT THE ROPE (FR)
  3. BECKETT ROCK (IRE)
