HOOK UP, a winner on the Flat in France, was only headed on the run-in when making his debut for Willie Mullins in a Grade 3 won by Burning Victory here in February. The winner then went on to land the Triumph Hurdle with today's entry well beaten but likely to be back to his best for his reappearance. Gars De Sceaux has joined Gordon Elliott after a convincing victory between the flags at Borris House in March. He has a cracking pedigree for jumping and should be a top prospect. Legacy Thor has been attempting to make all over longer trips but finding little when headed. Mighty Meggsie has shown some potential in bumpers though ran poorly at Galway last time but John Cannon loved testing conditions when landing a Thurles bumper in March. Gigolo' Dai Dai cost €190,000 last year and his dam produced the useful Diamond Guy with her first foal to race.
