Verdict

Esporao was close behind Khayar over the C&D last month and though not running so well at Sligo on Friday should get competitive. Silver Canyon won a bumper in April and followed with a fair debut over timber at Punchestown. He's since finished runner-up on the Flat at Leopardstown and is progressive enough to be a threat to all. Peaks Of Fire gained his first career victory on the level at Killarney last month and has shown plenty of promise over hurdles but this looks destined for FANTASTIC BOB. Well supported when making his hurdling debut over 2m4f at Limerick last month, he looked the winner with a couple of flights to go but made mistakes and was run out of it by Half Full. Compensation awaits here.
