Formscan By Tom Weekes - Newcomers are likely to play a big part here with FAITH OF EMPIRES the pick, as connections very much target this festival. Purchased for E38,000 as a three-year-old, his Turkish-bred dam is related to Flat winners and he is by the same sire as Grand National-winners Tiger Roll and I Am Maxumus’ stallion. Coutach ran well on his debut at the Punchestown festival and should figure while Maskarvel also has proven form and while he contested a useful Killarney bumper recently, is vulnerable to smart types. I'm A Rocket Man has just 1.25 lengths to find with Maskarvel on Punchestown form while debutante Gomez Addams is a half-brother to three capable winners and his yard had a good recent bumper winner. Theabsolutegov’nor is a half-brother to two winners.
