Biko hasn't run since February last year and has changed stables but Lunchable Bob ran quite well on his bumper debut at Punchestown though that was on heavy ground. Reverse Polarity looked a likely future winner when beaten a neck at Tramore in July but ran moderately there the next month and hasn't been seen subsequently. None of the remainder with experience make any real appeal so it wouldn't be a surprise to see one of the newcomers make a winning start. Mick Winters has his horses in good form and SHUIL SENNA is a half-sister to three winners including two bumpers so may be good enough. Winning Kate has a similar pedigree as she's also related to three winners.
