All Those Years didn't have much to beat on his debut in a Galway bumper but landed the odds in comfortable fashion and could be a hurdler of promise. Ballymacaw landed a KIlbeggan bumper in June and wasn't beaten far on his hurdling debut at Tramore but BENRUBEN could be the one to beat. Joseph O'Brien's charge won a Leopardstown bumper in December then ran over fences and would have won a Listed event at Thurles on his final start but for falling at the last. Exit Poll ended the last campaign with a Leopardstown bumper victory and should be a nice prospect while Rebel Og will have come on for a narrow defeat on her hurdling bow at Down Royal.
