Quaquo De Flotte comfortably landed a bumper here in November but ran moderately on his hurdling debut at Gowran in January. He should do better while Fennis Boy, who was in good form over timber at this time a year ago, reverts to the smaller obstacles after failing to sparkle over fences. Zagman's only poor effort came on very testing ground at Leopardstown and he's respected but Romantic Lead has proved inconsistent. VICS CANVAS landed a Naas bumper in November and has done enough in his three starts over timber, especially his latest effort behind Last Instalment at Navan, to get the verdict here.
