Verdict
DANDY MAG has been narrowly beaten in a couple of bumpers in France but the half-brother to Vroum Vroum Mag has a superb pedigree for jumping and can make a successful start for Willie Mullins. Lachares has been unfortunate to come up against some smart prospects but that looks the case again here as Leomar, a short-priced favourite in two runs since arriving from France, looks the type to do much better with a stiffer test of stamina. Theydon Park dead-heated in a Huntingdon bumper before making a promising start for Joseph O'Brien in a big field of hurdlers at Naas. Bracklin Princess is consistent enough but will need to find a bit more while the four-year-old filly Pahaska, though receiving allowances, may need more time.
