Verdict

TARARE, an easy winner between the flags in March 2013, started odds-on for his bumper debut at Fairyhouse a month ago but found De Plotting Shed too strong. The winner has been beaten since but Willie Mullins' charge will have come on for the run and is difficult to oppose. A Genie In Abottle was impressive when landing a point-to-point at Bartlemy in May and went for £60,000 at the sales while another points winner Cappuccino Man didn't perform badly on his bumper debut at Punchestown and he'll love the conditions. The likes of Oscars Boss and Hold Your Nerve have smart jumping pedigrees and should be noted in the market.
