FormscanBy Tom Weekes - BAPAUME was a high class staying hurdler who can make a winning chase debut on seasonal reappearance run here. He won a Grade 1 novice hurdle as a 4yo in 2017 and while he failed to win a top level race at open level, did nonetheless perform at a high level and comes here an experienced 22-hurdle raced six year old. He goes well on testing ground, clearly will appreciate today's staying trip and is sure to be well prepped for this chase test. Galvin was himself smart in bumpers and over hurdles but was a faller on chase debut at Galway last month. Most of his form is on reasonably soft ground and while today's more testing ground shouldn't prove beyond him, he nonetheless might struggle to beat the selection. Ronald Pump progressed extremely well over hurdles last season and is now rated 145 in that sphere. He makes his chase debut today but could get involved at the business end and, notably, attracted significant market support for this abandoned race which was due to be contested yesterday. Cap York finished second to smart prospect Battleoverdoyen in that recent Galway beginners' chase and while he has solid place claims, might struggle to win. Castlebawn West's form can be hit-and-miss but does have proven ability and chasing might about some improvement. Cuneo was a useful handicap hurdler last season but might struggle to win this.%0A%0A
