Race preview
NELSON'S POINT, fifth in the 2019 Landrover Bumper, might win on chase debut, with his same 95 hurdles rating. NELSON'S POINT was absent for 543 days following his Punchestown debut bumper and while his form had been disappointing, he won over hurdles at Tipperary in May (the third-placed horse won next time) and wasn't beaten far at Kilbeggan latest. He will be well schooled for chase debut and likes trip and ground. Give Me A Moment was well held at Limerick on his latest start but was a C&D winner in May. Hide Out, winless from 14 starts, wasn't beaten far over hurdles at Wexford in May and debuts over fences today. Eleven year old Drummullagh Rocky is winless since December 2019 but is a previous chase winner who comes here in good form, having run two solid races in defeat at Limerick (beating today's rival Give Me A Moment) and Downpatrick latest in recent months.
