FormscanBy Mark Nunan - Pat Taaffe rode a bumper winner for Noel Meade recently at Fairyhouse and a chance is taken with his mount here, PALACE STORM, who’s making his debut. The son of Sageburg is out of good racemare Kates Charm who has bred a couple of first-time-out bumper winners. Stranger Danger was third on debut last month behind a Willie Mullins-trained winner who’s held in high regard so he looks likely to be in the shake-up. Eurotiep was twice a beaten favourite in bumpers last year but ran to a fair level and his 7lb claimer has ridden him before, while Patrick Mullins rides point-to-point winner Recite A Prayer who’s another to consider. Having won a point-to-point in good style just over a week ago, History Of Fashion is quite likely to step up on his fifth in his first bumper outing last month
