Verdict

The market will be the best guide to this bumper but Sunset Showdown and Tossapenny are both winning pointers making their debut under Rules. West To The Bridge is a 50,000 euros half-brother to a winning hurdler and Tigger Two is a half-brother to three winning jumpers. Nocturnal Myth is the first foal of a winning hurdler/chaser and by top NH sire Midnight Legend but GOOD BOY BOBBY gets the vote. A half-brother to a winning bumper in Ireland, he cost 80,000 euros last year and is bred to have more speed than the majority of these.
