In depth

Verdict

Winning bumper Caldwell Potter was beaten just over a length by the odds-on It's For Me at Punchestown last month and looks certain to get into contention though the winner's yard can take this with DR EGGMAN. He was conceding a subsequent dual bumper winner 13lb when just landing a Ballinrobe bumper in May and looks a fine recruit to hurdling. Catena Zapata, runner-up in both starts over timber in autumn last year, has been placed in both recent starts on the flat and should be winning soon but stablemate Gorgeous Tom probably needs further. Mythical Vision is one to keep an eye on for the future.
