Verdict

BELLS GROVE, who has been placed in three bumpers, ran more than creditably in third on hurdling debut at Listowel. He finished nicely clear of the remainder and drying ground holds no fears for him. There are National Hunt winners in Tiffany Case's pedigree, so she is a newcomer that could show up well for Barry Connell. Henry de Bromhead switches Spanish Rising to hurdling from the Flat and he is sure to be well schooled, while there is likely to be more to come from How's Ellie on her second run over flights.
