Style Of Campile looked a certain future winner when runner-up to Apt Manor at Galway but flopped in more testing conditions at Thurles and may not be suited by today's conditions. Cork bumper winner Buck Barrow ran a fine race behind Gagewell Flyer at Navan last month and has no problems with the ground but the one to beat is COTTRELSBOOLEY. Willie Mullins' charge landed a Naas bumper by 18 lengths in March and made a promising start over timber there last month when, after attempting to make all over 2m3f, he faded from the last suggesting this trip will prove ideal. Tavern Times, who started favourite for the Champion Bumper at Punchestown in April, is highly regarded and one to note on his debut over hurdles.
