Verdict

Fan Fan La Tulipe, a winner on the Flat in France, made his debut for Willie Mullins at Fairyhouse last November where he ran well for a long way before weakening. He could be a different proposition this campaign. Good Time Jonny was well beaten behind Joseph Conrad at Cork on Sunday but Hamundarson has shown plenty of potential in bumpers and over timber and won't mind the conditions. PURE GENIUS, a winner on the Flat in France, was in fine form in big fields last season and started favourite on his reappearance over the course and distance but dropped away tamely. He'll need to do better but his overall form gives him the edge. Razzle Dazzle Love won a Galway bumper in September and found 2m4f too far on her hurdling debut at Fairyhouse.
