Bleuker made a reasonable start over timber at Tramore but was moderate on the level and some of these should do better. They include Ploopluck Bridge, who was in front of him on the Flat at Tramore a couple of weeks ago, and EL GRAN TORINO, who is rated 80 on the level and has shown enough promise to suggest he can do well over obstacles. Roman Flight, a 25/1 winner of his only start on the Flat in June, only got as far as the first on his hurdling debut at Roscommon where he attempted to refuse and unshipped David Casey.
