Verdict

Adamantly Chosen landed a Punchestown bumper in April and was only headed close home on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse. He couldn't quite contain Gringo D'Aubrelle that day but started long odds-on at Cork next time and was narrowly beaten on heavy ground. There's more to come from him but he may have to settle for second again as BARBADOS (NAP) looks a nice prospect. A smart stayer on the Flat for Aidan O'Brien, he couldn't match strides with the useful My Mate Mozzie on his hurdling debut at Punchestown but can go one better. Bugs Moran has shown form in bumpers and in two starts over timber but will need to raise his game while Fourneux D'isanka didn't act on heavy ground at Clonmel last time.
