Verdict

Articulum, a dual bumper winner, hasn't been seen since well beaten in the championship bumper at Punchestown last year. Willie Mullins has won three of the past five of these and winning bumper Itsonlyrocknroll will be better for his hurdling bow at Wexford. Gordon Elliott runs Stoneford, having his first start since landing a Fairyhouse bumper on New Year's Day 2016, and SECRET LEGACY, the mount of Jack Kennedy. The latter won a Tipperary bumper last October before finishing third in a stronger event on this track and looks the one to be on. Henry De Bromhead does well with his former point-to-pointers and Knockanard winner Dicey O'reilly is one to keep an eye on.
