DREAM CHAMPION returned to form under Ruby Walsh at Ballinrobe on Sunday and with just a 4lb penalty a quick follow-up looks on the cards for Tony Martin's charge. Bandama landed a maiden in convincing style at Tramore last week and may not be badly treated on his handicap debut while the very consistent Irish Poli is always worth considering in this grade over timber. He fell at the second when fancied for the race won by Ahorsecalledmolly at Roscommon and the winner is probably capable of better despite his age as he hasn't had much racing. Wreckitman stepped up to this trip for the first time at Sligo and ran out a convincing winner of a maiden. He's on the upgrade and can go well along with Manger Hanagment, who is at the right end of the handicap and ran well behind Keep It Cool at Killarney.
