Reserve Bundle Of Fun would have serious claims if making the line-up, but as it is POCKET READER gets a token vote. Enda Bolger's charge made a pleasing return from a three month lay-off when fourth over a longer trip at Kilbeggan behind Pistol Jack and Tony McCoy takes over the reins today. A line through the latter gives Lock Mor Lad a chance, while the veteran Leney Dow Jones also has claims on his recent form. It was fast ground when Coolharbour Breeze and D's Trix won their respective races at Tramore in the summer, while a case can be made for both Clan Music and Kilbane River on their best form.
