Verdict

Having displayed ability in bumpers, DID I ASK YOU THAT made a promising return from 19 months off at Punchestown and sure to build on that, he's marginally preferred to Mclaurey, who looks a solid opponent. Shoot The Blues is also of interest.

  1. DID I ASK YOU THAT (IRE)
  2. MCLAUREY (IRE)
  3. SHOOT THE BLUES
