An interesting bumper to conclude. The strength in the betting behind ROCK SENSATION on her C&D debut suggests she'd been showing plenty at home and she's given another chance in the hope that she settles better now and can deliver more at the finish. The likely less testing ground may also help in that regard. Crambo's sister Gidge (second choice) is bred for the job and would rate a potential threat if the market vibes are strong. Queenofthejukebox brings winning bumper form, while Brooklyn Callin, Queensworthy and Jetty May, a stablemate of Gidge, have switched to leading yards after showing up well in Irish points.[Andrew Sheret]

Built upon her bumper debut fourth at Aintree (2m1f, good) in October to win in good style at Wetherby (2m, good to soft) in November; matched that form when fifth of ten in Market Rasen Listed bumper (2m, good to soft) in January; should be very competitive but does have to give weight to a number of interesting rivals.
Half-sister to stable's useful bumper/jumps winner Midnightreferendum; kept on well for second of 11 behind better-fancied stablemate at Warwick in November but weakened when well held over C&D (good to soft again) on New Year's Eve; her rider reported that she raced too freely and she returns from a short break with a hood fitted; stable also runs Sharp Glance.
Sold for £42,000 a few days after winning a four-runner 3m Irish point in November; joined a leading stable for her rules career and would firmly enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.
Half-sister to smart hurdler/chaser Pistol Whipped; sold for £150,000 after easily winning heavy-ground Irish point last spring; 13-2 and tongue tied when weakened into fifth of ten on Warwick bumper debut (2m, good to soft) in November; given time since and retains potential.
Purchased for £45,000 after finishing second in an Irish point (3m, good to yielding) in October; the third was placed in a bumper at Newcastle in January so the form may have a bit of substance; it'll be very interesting to see how she compares in the betting to stablemate Gidge.
Cost 15,000euros as a yearling and is the second foal of a 2m4f chase winner from the family of Master Oats; the stable's 2-37 bumper record in the last five seasons doesn't mark her down as a likely winner on debut.
Sold for £15,000 after winning Irish point debut (3m, yielding) in January; it's unlikely that form is anything special (beat rivals who have had a few chances) but she's still worth a market check.
Half-sister to yard's winners Vienna Court (useful 2m-2m5f hurdle/chase) and Spring Meadow (bumper and 2m3f/2m4f hurdle); dam unraced sister to bumper/useful 2m4f-3m hurdle winner Whisky Yankee; good pedigree and looks the stable first string on jockey bookings.
Beaten 14l when second on Irish point debut (3m, soft) but was clear of a subsequent winner in third; joined a top stable with an excellent bumper record this season and market confidence would look significant.
Chased home a subsequent Willie Mullins bumper winner (pair clear) in a point last March; all the rage to make a winning bumper debut over C&D (heavy) on New Year's Eve but weakened into seventh after pulling too hard; evidently well regarded and could prove a different proposition now.
Telescope half-sister to point winner Wilco; dam point/3m hurdle winner; On Top Of The Moon looks the stable first string on jockey bookings but the betting will provide some clues.
