Cases can be made for several, but the verdict goes to WARTIME LEADER, who split a pair who both progressed into smart performers when runner-up in a Naas bumper 18 months ago so can go one better having switched to powerhouse Willie Mullins in the interim. Garahon left his debut effort behind on return at Bellewstown earlier in the month and he looks sure to be involved again, with point winners Welonlyhavedone and Ring of Kerry rounding off the shortlist.
