Bugs Moran ran well when fourth over timber at Cork in November but was beaten 16 lengths into second when reverting to a bumper at Tramore. Fourneux D'isanka showed potential in bumpers but was beaten a long way over timber at Clonmel. STATE MAN, runner-up to the smart Busselton in France in 2020, started odds-on for his debut for Willie Mullins at Leopardstown on St Stephen’s Day but fell two out when in touch. He won’t be much of a price here but the opposition looks weak and he can’t be opposed. True Faith made a fair debut at Kilbeggan in July but hasn’t made the expected progress.
