1.10 Leopardstown

Minella Times (25-1, William Hill) makes his seasonal reappearance over hurdles in a Pertemps Qualifier. Winning this race would make no difference to his chase mark which is a good reason to expect a good run. He was a little out of sorts last season but if he’s back and raring to go, he could be overpriced here. This obviously isn’t his target for the season but it’s a good starting point and his hurdles mark is 31lb lower than his chase one.


1.45 Leopardstown

Commander Of Fleet (33-1, Paddy Power) won a gruelling renewal of the Coral Cup at Cheltenham in March and looked like a dour stayer in the process. Should improve for his first start of the season at Navan over 2m4f last time and is likely to find this a much more suitable test. Pulled up in this race last year but that wasn’t a true reflection of his ability.


2.20 Leopardstown

French Dynamite (25-1, William Hill) is an interesting proposition, stepping into open Grade 1 company for the first time over fences. Ran a cracker in the Paddy Power Gold Cup at Cheltenham last time out when denied by less than a length. Started the season off with a cosy win over hurdles at Thurles over 2m7f. A horse on the upgrade and we haven’t seen the best of him yet. Improvement is obviously needed but it would be no surprise to see this horse run a big one.
