Verdict
Willie Mullins has won the last three of these and runs Sounds Victorius, a half-brother to three winners and certain to be well supported. Patter Merchant's victory at Dromahane last month may not have been in a strong race but he comes he fit and well so should make a bold bid but a chance is taken with JORDANN. Bill Durkan's charge cost €110,000 and is the first foal of a winning French bumper who is from the family of winning bumpers. The remaining pair have shown nothing.
