Verdict

Winning point-to-pointer Intense Approach easily won a Bellewstown bumper then scrambled home in a much better race at Listowel and makes his hurdling debut under a penalty. Iceberg Theory was beaten just over three lengths behind the odds-on Black Bamboo on his hurdling bow at Cork while Tramps Like Us ran really well on heavy ground at Listowel. Sportinthepark has shown plenty of potential in bumpers while Henry De Bromhead introduces a couple of winning point-to-pointers. Rachael is on board MOSSY FEN PARK, an expensive purchase after a very easy win at Nenaghin in February, which suggests her mount is more forward than Ballyknock winner Cobra Queen. Jack Du Large is an interesting newcomer for Gordon Elliott.
