FormscanBy Gary Carson - MAGIC BOUM may be able to make a winning start for Gordon Elliott. The Buck's Boum mare was a good winner of her point-to-point for Ellen Doyle back in February and the form of that race looks solid. The runner-up, Claim Du Brizais, was third in an Aintree bumper in late October while the third horse, Pure Seduction, won a maiden hurdle in Worcester during the summer. Willie Mullins representative Kaid D'authie is an obvious danger. He was a promising fifth behind Triumph Hurdle winner Martinborough on his sole start in France. Eastern Legend is the pick of those with hurdles form but he needs to improve on his showing at Punchestown a fortnight ago.
