Verdict

Jarob completed a hat-trick on quicker ground in the autumn but not surprisingly has shot up the weights as a consequence. He wouldn't want any more rain but conditions shouldn't bother ANIBALE FLY. It's a surprise to see Tony Martin's charge in a handicap after following a hat-trick of bumper and hurdles victories with a superb third behind Bellshill in a Grade 1 novices' hurdle at Naas last month. Connections must believe he's on a handy mark so he's difficult to oppose. Beau Mome is another making his handicap debut and he's been brought along steadily so looks certain to make further progress and though Who's That is 2lb out of the handicap both of his victories to date have been on this track. Bishopslough is 20lb lower than over fences and should be taking advantage before too long.
