Call Me Rocky has won on the Flat here but looks vulnerable on what he's shown over timber. Perceval Legallois comfortably landed a Gowran bumper in January while Itwasfate showed that there are races to be won with him with a very encouraging hurdling debut at Cork. Viceregent and Happy Birthday are newcomers to note in the market but Willie Mullins looks to have the answer with HENN SEE, runner-up in an Auteuil bumper that has produced a couple of winners. The stable also have reserves El Fabiolo and Hors Piste engaged and the former would be an obvious alternative if the selection doesn't run.
