Willie Mullins trained A FINE YOUNG MAN to land a bumper on his debut two years ago and he's back with the champion trainer after three reasonable runs over hurdles for Stephen Cox. This is the longest trip he has tried and, as it should suit, he can gain his first success over timber. Present Potential is another who looked certain to be better over further when a very good third behind Allure Of Illusion at Punchestown but Jeunopse, though running reasonably well, has now had 15 starts over timber without winning. Big Generator may provide the main threat as he should have made a winning debut between the flags last April and has been running well since without getting the test of stamina he requires.
