Massey's Wood (10/11), Burren Life (9/4), Brave Poppy (7/2), Statistical (16/1), Epic Ethel (25/1), Drumbar Millie (33/1), Manhatton Island (50/1), Trump Sixteen (66/1)

Verdict

MASSEY'S WOOD made a very impressive debut when cutting out the running and readily drawing a long way clear of his rivals at Listowel this month to win a bumper. Having shown testing ground won't be an issue, he has to be greatly respected switching his attention to hurdles and looks set for a big run. The drop in distance should see former C&D runner-up Brave Poppy in a better light while Burren Life could be capable of better in this sphere having run well without registering in bumpers for Gordon Elliott.
