Love Sign D'aunou
Willie Mullins saddles five as he bids for a record-extending 15th success in this, with easy Naas winner LOVE SIGN D'AUNOU taken to come out on top under Patrick Mullins. Keep Him Company, the mount of Jack Kennedy from the Gordon Elliott quartet, is second choice ahead of Chris Gordon's listed scorer Bass Hunter and The Mourne Rambler. Quiryn, The Irish Avatar and Our Trigger are other Mullins runners who looked very promising when making winning bumper debuts.

Won sole start in points and stretched his unbeaten record to 3 with wins in bumpers at Fairyhouse (soft) and Leopardstown (good to soft) at the end of 2025.

Irish point winner who has made all on both bumper starts for Chris Gordon, latterly fending off the reopposing Tally Ho Back by a length in an Ascot listed race (good to soft) just before Christmas.

Winner of 2 bumpers around 1½m in France, including a Grade 3 at Lyon Parilly. Also second in Grade 2 at Saint-Cloud in between. New connections went to a whopping €710,000 to acquire her in November. Goes without the tongue tie she wore in France.

Well-backed runner-up on debut at Punchestown last spring and travelled strongly/quickened clear to go one better in first-time tongue tie there (17f, soft) on return in November.

Overcame inexperience to score easily in 8-runner bumper at Navan (heavy) on debut for Colm Ryan.

£250,000 purchase after winning sole start in points. Off the mark at the second time of asking in bumpers when making all at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day and left that form behind when short-head second to stablemate Broadway Ted in Grade 2 at Leopardstown since, rallying well.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLeopardstown2mHeavyBumper2/7Fairyhouse2mYieldingBumper1/5Navan2mSoft to Heavy (Heavy in places)Bumper4/8- 6Diamant DoreJ: Brian HughesT: Adrian Keatley1Age 522/122/120/1

Poet's Word gelding from very good Flat family who has won bumpers at Lingfield and Huntingdon (heavy) this winter.
