Verdict
Winning bumper Fortune Street has produced a couple of decent efforts in maiden and novice company over timber and didn't handle heavy going in a Leopardstown handicap last time. Enniskerry has been thereabouts in all three starts in bumpers and has plenty of winning relatives over jumps but VISCOUNT GORT would be difficult to beat if repeating his debut second over timber at Cork in December. Henry De Bromhead's charge was never travelling in a Fairyhouse bumper the following month and virtually stopped to a walk but that wasn't his form which he can prove here. Blackpoint scored on the Flat at Limerick in September and has a bit more scope than most of these.
