Verdict
REBEL OG won the bumper on this card a year ago by 17l before disappointing in subsequent events including a Grade 2 at Leopardstown. He has the perfect pedigree for jumping and can make a successful debut. Star Adventure beat a subsequent winner at Wexford but disappointed at Killarney and is likely to need a very strong pace. Darrens Diamond has run two decent races at Cork in-between some poor efforts while Kashmir Wilde has been looking one-paced and some rain would aid her cause.
