Henry De Bromhead has a very good record in this so the newcomer Eastern Harbour, who has a Flat pedigree, is one to note. Cash In Mind, four times a winner on the Flat, has shown potential over hurdles while three-times Flat winner Reaver ran really well when a close third at Limerick last week. Royal Zorro was the surprise winner of a Sligo bumper but that was a year ago and he hasn't run since. Tree Of Knowledge has been disappointing but DREAMTIDE looks to have been found an ideal opportunity to make a successful debut over hurdles. She only ran three times for Amanda Perrett but she's a half-sister to the high-class Wicklow Brave and related to other winners. Global Jackpot would have an obvious chance if getting a run from his reserve spot after three successive seconds in bumpers.
