Patrick Mullins teams up with Gordon Elliott here on board MY TRUMP CARD, who just failed to catch the winner in what looked a strong bumper here three weeks ago and can go one better. The Story So Far looks a threat as he made a very promising debut at Clonmel and will have come on a bundle for the experience. Big Chou made his debut in a Naas maiden hurdle and that experience should stand him in good stead.
