A busy Sunday and here are the thoughts of our Long Shot tipster.
Punchestown
J: G Brouder
T: M F Morris
Franciscan Rock has showed some fair form over hurdles and fences despite having just the 1 win to his name from 17 starts He was a very good 5th of 21 in the Coral Cup at the Cheltenham Festival back in March and was then pitched into grade 1 company at Punchestown where he was far from disgraced finishing 6th of 11. That is pretty good form in the context of this race and if Franciscan Rock is ready to go after a 115 day break, he might just have too much class for his rivals. Franciscan Rock rates a 4 star each way Pick.
