In depth

Verdict

Point-to-point bumpers are popular in Ireland but are a relatively new concept in the UK. Several professional yards have runners in this and they may be the ones to concentrate on, though the market should prove the best guide. Will Biddick rides CHARMIX for Harry Fry and he heads the short-list having shown a nice turn of foot to win at the South Dorset in February. The four-year-old Pinnacle Panda could go well for Tom Lacey while Ali Stronge's Petite Power is also lightly raced. Neil Mulholland runs Bishops Court while Play The Ace has proved a prolific winner between the flags and will be hoping to put his experience to good use.
