Willie Mullins and Katie Walsh team up with the unraced SIN PALO, who hails from a high-class jumping family and should be good enough to make a winning start. Another newcomer, Brackforde, is probably even better bred for running in bumpers and is definitely one to keep an eye on in the betting. Flycorn hasn't done much wrong but his three runs to date have been on ground with plenty of give and it remains to be seen how he handles this surface. Skiing In Tune has been looking one-paced and probably won't come into her own until tackling obstacles.
