BACHASSON won two bumpers in the French Provinces and though likely to be tackling quicker ground on his hurdling debut can make a successful start for Willie Mullins. My Matador scored on Deauville's all-weather Flat track but has been disappointing over timber since a decent effort at Clonmel. Credulous has been running well since the ground turned quicker and hasn't been beaten far in each of his last three runs so he looks the one who could benefit if the selection doesn't come up to scratch. Silken Thomas has been lightly-raced and may do best of the remainder.
