Winning bumper MR ANTOLINI has been unfortunate not to have scored over timber and was there with every chance when falling at the last at Galway. Compensation awaits here though Snag List is an obvious threat. Willie Mullins' mare landed a bumper here on her debut then was sent to the UK for two Listed races and her pedigree suggests she can make a decent hurdler. Red Pearl also made a successful debut in a bumper and showed promise in both starts over timber in the spring while Ballela Boy, another with a bumper victory to his credit, should make a hurdler in time.
