Merely hinted at ability in a big-field Punchestown bumper in the spring but much more like it when third of 11 in bumper at Tramore (16.2f, heavy, 4/1) 46 days ago, doing best work late on. Likely there's even more to come and he's one to consider.

Court Cave gelding. Runner-up sole start in points and displayed promise starting out under Rules when second of 11 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft) on NH debut 107 days ago. Makes bumpers debut and he's another who is respected.

€21,000 3-y-o, Pour Moi gelding. 33/1, third of 8 in bumper at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) on NH debut 49 days ago, merely plugging on. Big jump forward required in form terms if he's to play a lead role here.

Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Dam lightly raced on Flat. Yard 1-7 with their runners in bumpers so far this season and the betting should guide.
Timeform Verdict 
Point winner SKYLIGHT HUSTLE appeals as a likely type making his Rules debut for the stable who landed this contest 12 months ago, so he gets the narrow vote before the benefit of market clues. Runcok is one of the likely dangers following an improved showing at Tramore and is next best. The selection's stablemate Alfa Charlie and De Temps En Temps complete the shortlist.
Betting Forecast
5/2 Runcok (Fr), 5/1 De Temps En Temps (Ire), 28/1 Pour One More (Ire), 6/1 Alfa Charlie, 16/1 Parnell Street (Ire), 33/1 Nelsons Dawn (Ire), 40/1 Powerful Paddy (Ire), 3/1 Skylight Hustle (Ire), 14/1 Thedeviluno (Ire)
