Verdict

Dual hurdles winner Wouldn't You Agree hasn't shown much to date over fences but Cahirdown Boy had been running quite well over timber before showing ability on his chasing bow at Tramore. Winning bumper Ballybough Native quickly has his attention turned to chasing after just three runs over timber where he showed plenty of potential. VINA ARDANZA, a winning bumper and hurdler, was placed at Grade 1 level over hurdles at Aintree and ran in the Galway Hurdle last time where he was staying on when falling two out. His pedigree is all about jumping fences and he can make a successful debut before heading for better things.
