It's a surprise to see Enda Bolger having just one runner in this so De Nordener, who has only had five starts between the flags and won his last two, must be considered ready for this test. He's only a youngster in this sphere as is GOOD BYE SAM, who landed a hunters' race at Tramore despite being unsuited by the track. Beyond Redemption has been in cracking form between the flags while Vital Island and Michael's Pick have invaluable experience of these obstacles.
