Emmet Mullins has two interesting entries. The Gossiper won his last two bumpers last summer while THE SHUNTER was placed in major handicaps over hurdles and fences last year including the Galway Plate, his probable target this year. He may have enough quality to take this though Zaynudin wasn't beaten far in his five starts last year and would be an obvious threat if ready after a break. Beautiful Chaos should improve for her recent run at Roscommon.
