Top Line Tommy has had 23 starts over jumps without winning and is conceding weight all round due to scoring at Dundalk. Winning point-to-pointer CLONDAW BERTIE was conceding a stone to the winner when narrowly beaten over the track and trip in October. He has a long break to overcome but looks a progressive type and can go one better. Nevendon attempted to make all over 2m1f at Bellewstown and kept on steadily when headed two out. From a yard going well, he should get into the frame while Starzov was always in the front rank when placed on his hurdling bow at Wexford and will find this trip more to his liking.
