Down Royal

Tomorrow, Bumper2m

Those with experience set no more than a fair standard so this may be prime for one of Gordon Elliott's pair in the shape of WITH NOLIMIT and Ballyfad. Each cost plenty on the back of point victories, with the former narrowly preferred before market clues. Lexington Wood may do best of the others.

    Verdict
    No Risk At All gelding who stepped up on his debut effort when fourth of 10 in bumper at Punchestown (16.4f, good, 22/1) 147 days ago. Quite possible he can do better again and he's considered for each-way purposes.

    €55,000 3-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Sirobbie and modest chaser Breezy Kin, stayed 25f. Won sole start in points (Apr 2025) and interesting if the market spoke in his favour on Rules bow.

    Shirocco gelding who ran to a similar level as on debut when fifth of 10 in bumper at Thurles (15.7f, good to soft) 2 days ago, outpaced entering straight before staying on again final 1f. Longer trips over jumps promise to be more his bag in due course.
