FormscanBy Alan Magee - RISK FACTOR had smart form here in bumpers when successful at the Christmas Festival in 2019 and subsequently second to Appreciate It in a Grade 2. The Joseph O’Brien-trained gelding has been campaigned since over hurdles showing promise but without success and may enjoy this return to the level. Crowns Major justified good support when making a winning debut in a bumper at this years Punchestown Festival and was far from disgraced on his only subsequent outing in a decent conditions race at Killarney. Ever Present and Monas Melody have also won Punchestown bumpers, while Zuma Rock is another for the shortlist in a competitive Flat maiden having won a Clonmel bumper last month.
