Flammarion won a bumper when trained by David O’Meara and was second over 1m4f on the Flat having a first run for David Pipe. He looks the type to do well over hurdles but Wise Glory, also a Flat winner, will probably need to improve on what he’s achieved so far over timber if he’s to get his head in front. LOVED OUT had decent form in Ireland when trained by Thomas Mullins and is the one to beat in this if at his best.
