Top Bandit has been a beaten favourite in three of four starts, all on ground with some give. He has an obvious chance of getting off the mark but the mares' allowance may help MARY MEEHAN to beat him. She looked as though she needed further when staying on over 2m at Kilbeggan and the longer trip can see her see off her main rival. None of the remainder with experience have shown much so John McConnell's newcomer Bundle Of Dreams, who is related to three winning jumpers, may run into a place.
