Verdict

Henry de Bromhead could hardly have found a weaker contest in which to introduce BALLYBOLLEN, and it's hard to look past the well-bred Nathaniel gelding. The most solid form is provided by Kilbeggan sixth and seventh, Tommy's Ticket and Long Story, with the former much preferred of the pair, while Ealu Tapa was fancied when finishing mid-field at Punchestown. Harry Swan's mount Millers Point is well bred and could easily get into the money. [Mark Nunan]

Nathaniel half-brother was a cheap yearling; half-brother to four winners, notably Stuart Crawford's useful bumper and hurdles performer Mongibello; dam French 1m1f/10.5f winner, half-sister to French 2m5f Grade 3 hurdle winner; bar set low for debut.

Homebred Getaway gelding; dam placed over 1m5f, sister to yard's high-class jumper Peregrine Run and Takeyourcapoff (1m6f Flat and useful 2m-2m4f hurdle), out of bumper winner; only 11-2 when mid-division in 18-runner bumper at Punchestown; should be capable of better and anything Adam Ryan rides in bumpers is always worth a second glance.

Jet Away 5yo was only 9-1 for Kilbeggan debut; raced prominently and keenly before fading; beaten less than 7l, but the fact that only around 10l covered the first 10 home gives the form a dubious look; hood might help.

80s, much better on second start when beaten 8.5l at Kilbeggan where he looked green before staying on late; that's not hectic form, but has a place shout.

Cost 40,000euros as 3yo; half-brother to bumper/2m hurdle winner The Model Kingdom and dam also won a bumper; smart family farther back in the pedigree as well; fancied for both points but failed to complete.

Diamond Boy half-brother to three winners in France, including Le But (1m2f-1m3f Flat and useful 2m1f-2m4f hurdle/chase); dam Flat/hurdles winner, half-sister to Eoin Griffin's smart dual-purpose mare Lounaos; no joy in two point outings.
