Brother Walfrid
BROTHER WALFRID is likely to be suited by further in due course, but he showed lots of ability when runner-up in a big-field maiden at Fairyhouse last month and has to be considered the one to beat switched to a bumper. Fiveandahalf also shaped with a fair degree of promise on his hurdling debut at Limerick in March and can give the selection most to do, ahead of Moyneard, who is the clear pick of those with previous experience in this sphere.
