Willie Mullins is doubly represented with Lasparas making most appeal after landing a Tramore bumper with plenty in hand. The point-to-point winner, making his hurdling bow, could be anything and market strength may prove a useful pointer. Stable companion Rayapour, placed in Listed company on the level in France, made a pleasing debut over timber behind Palm Beach and improvement is expected. He was last seen coming home 12th of 19 in the Ascot Stakes at the Royal meeting. True Faith rates a sure-fire improver after a promising debut but the proven form of DESIR DU LARGE who made the front four on his first two hurdling starts, both at Grade 2 level, and ran very well behind a talented sort last time, could hold sway as he should appreciate the step up in trip.
