Doesyourdogbite made a winning debut at Market Rasen last month and is a nice prospect. But he'll need to have improved again to give weight to some promising rivals. Bradford Bridge could give a boost to stablemate Book Direct's Newton Abbot second in the first division while Rocky's Treasure won a Curraheen point-to-point in March. Full Irish was third in a Listed bumper at Ascot last December and Opera Rock showed promise in that sphere in his only start. DAVID CRICKET gets the nod as he should leave his bumper form well behind now tackling hurdles as he's a full brother to Grade 2 winning jumper Red Sherlock.
