Formscan  - Willie Mullins bids for an unprecedented 15th success in the Champion Bumper and Love Sign D'aunou, the choice of his son Patrick, appears to be the pick of the Closutton quintet after a 24-length rout on his Rules debut at Naas in January. The Irish Avatar impressed in his bumper victory at Navan and commands plenty of respect, but the four-year-old QUIRYN is especially interesting. He boasts an unusual profile having attempted to run twice on the Flat in France, but not consenting to enter the stalls, and he made a bright start in a Naas bumper. A half-brother to a Group 1 winner, it wouldn't be a massive surprise if he had too much speed for the NH types in a bid to be the first of his age group to win this since Cue Card back in 2011. Keep Him Company, Ascot Listed winner Bass Hunter and Mets Ta Ceinture, who was purchased for 710,000 euros in November, are others to note.
