Formscan - Quai De Bourbon clearly has a decent engine judged on his two victories for Willie Mullins at Naas and Clonmel. That being said, his jumping was far from fluent on either occasion and it will need to have been improved upon. No Ordinary Joe went into many notebooks with his latest third at Kempton, but the form of the stable is enough to temper any enthusiasm and it is the same owner, JP McManus, who may hold the key with WATERFORD WHISPERS. The six-year-old built on his only start last season with a brace of victories at Galway and Fairyhouse before finishing second in a Leopardstown handicap in December. Open to a considerable amount of improvement, a mark of 133 may underestimate him. Better Days Ahead's more recent form was well advertised in the Supreme on Tuesday and he is capable of being in the mix, while others to consider include Answer To Kayf, What's Up Darling and Ocastle Des Mottes.
