Bunk Off Early made a winning start for Team Mullins at this meeting a year ago and developed into a smart novice hurdler with two wins from four starts. He's forgiven defeats at the major spring festivals and should be primed to go now tackling fences for the first time on his return to action. LE MARTALIN made a really fine start over fences at Wexford in going a neck behind Dinaria Des Obeaux, who won again next time and ran well in the Drinmore since. Noel Meade's charge made a swift exit on his next start at Navan but could bounce back with a big run here if staying upright. Tycoon Prince can also get involved while the other Mullins runner, Montalbano, has some improvement to find.
