Macgiloney looks a staying type so has done well to win two bumpers and will have found 2m1f much too short at Killarney last time. Winning point-to-pointer Salty Boy made a decent start over timber at Roscommon and this looks much more like his trip while Serious Ego has a similar profile and is another who looks certain to be suited by the extra. Brooks Falls won a Sligo bumper and is bred for jumping but PERCY VEER was running a cracking race when falling at the last at Killarney and can gain compensation. James Eclipse, Qui Bono and Presentingprincess are others to note in a race that should produce plenty of future winners.
