Jumped super for maiden win; potentially high-class novice and Kennedy's pick
3	Belloccio Grey J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	J:Paul Townend T:W P Mullins	158	t	1	-	141	118	—	—	—	-2	15	9/2 18%
Classy Flat performer unexposed on just second hurdles run; Townend's pick
6	Sea Of Sands Bay J:Mr P W Mullins T:W P Mullins	J:Mr P W Mullins T:W P Mullins	158	—	1	-	136	118	—	—	—	+4	12.2	10/1 9%
Too keen in Cesarewitch; remains unexposed as a hurdler

Return to better ground may suit but others probably more progressive

Tipperary Grade 3 win off a strong pace; more needed here though

Very useful handicapper but surprising if he is good enough here

Sligo maiden winner appears the lesser likely of the Mullins' quintet

Recent Navan maiden winner faces an altogether different class of opposition here
NR	Bleu De Vassy Bay J:Sam Ewing T:Gordon Elliott	J:Sam Ewing T:Gordon Elliott	161	—	241-11	-	139	118	15d	—	—	—	0	—
Impressive Grade 3 Navan winner; Kennedy deserts but still a big player
