FormscanBy Alan Magee - GLEN WYLLIN won a Ballinrobe bumper last spring and was also third to Dysart Dynamo at the Punchestown Festival. The Henry de Bromhead-trained gelding jumped poorly when switched to hurdles on his reappearance but was much better last time over this trip at Fairyhouse when runner-up to Carrig Sam. Belle Metal is an obvious threat. She looked smart in two bumper wins last season but reportedly made a noise when weakening to finish fifth behind Au Fleuron on her hurdling debut at Navan before Christmas. The Willie Mullins-trained filly was sent off at odds-on in that 21-runner event and is obviously held in high regard. The Flier Begley and Manisanda have both shown a decent level of form in bumpers, while Jaycean is a newcomer to note in the market.
