Verdict

Dawn Run second OLDSCHOOL OUTLAW can go one place better at Grade 1 level now stepping up to 2½m for the first time. Willie Mullins pair Place de La Nation and Charme de Faust weren't far behind the selection at Cheltenham and head the many dangers along with Shannon Spray 1-2 Zanoosh and How's Hannah.

10	Useful hurdler, successful here in January. Second in 2¼m Fairyhouse Grade 3 and third in Dawn Run at Cheltenham (17f, good) on her last 2 outings but Oldschool Outlaw was ahead of her on both occasions. Should give another good account. 2nd Pick 10 Place De La Nation (Fr) Jockey: Danny Gilligan Trainer: W. P. Mullins, Ireland J: Danny Gilligan T: W. P. Mullins, Ireland	99	-	-	-	13%

12	French recruit who looked useful when winning a 2m Thurles maiden on first outing for Willie Mullins and fully confirmed those impressions when 3½ lengths fourth of 22 to White Noise in Dawn Run at Cheltenham (17f, good). Definitely more to come and the mount of Townend from the Mullins quintet. 3rd Pick 12 Charme De Faust (Fr) Jockey: P. Townend Trainer: W. P. Mullins, Ireland J: P. Townend T: W. P.
