Aupcharlie, who did best of the Irish horses in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham, ran moderately behind ill-fated stablemate Lovethehigherlaw in the Punchestown equivalent but is expected to take high rank over timber. He's penalised here along with GOLANBROOK and it's the latter's experience over hurdles that may just swing things his way as he produced a smart debut run behind Mount Belbullen here at the beginning of the month. Sids Choice looks best of those who should be fighting for minor places.
