Three Mmm's is a half-brother to a couple of Flat winners while Oski is by Oscar out of a staying hurdler so both newcomers are worth a market check, though this looks a competitive bumper for the track. Deshan would surely have won at Worcester a year ago had his rider not lost his irons when almost knocked out of the saddle. Magic Bullet will be fancied to step up on a promising fourth at Warwick but SANDYMOUNT ran green on his debut at Naas and can make a winning start for new connections with Tara Time disappointing when favourite at Sedgefield in March.

Flybridge 100-1 (10-12) Towards rear, pushed along and strugggling 8f out, never a factor, tailed off, 11th of 14, dist behind Alfredo (10-12) at Fontwell 1m 6f (6) gs in Apr.
