A fascinating opener in which the market should prove a valuable guide Dee Capo landed normally-informative a bumper just over a month ago and The Passing Wife landed his sole point-to-point back in March. He's joined Gavin Cromwell, who has his string in rampant form at present. Flat winner Wandering Rocks shaped nicely on hurdling debut and should step forward again but INTENT APPROACH looked a horse with a future when runner-up in a Punchestown bumper in late spring and has since been purchased by J P McManus. Reserve Touch Me Not would also be interesting if getting a run on debut for Gordon Elliott.
