Verdict
HIDDEN CYCLONE has been in superb form, following his victory on the Flat at Killarney with a brilliant second in the Galway Hurdle then scoring over timber here on Sunday. He'll take some beating though this is a strong race for its type. The Winkler is a useful chasing prospect who comfortably landed a similar race to this at Killarney while Snow Falcon landed a Grade 2 hurdle on heavy going at Navan in February and reappeared last month with an easy victory at Roscommon. The Job Is Right is a very useful chaser at his best who will no doubt be heading for some of the big handicaps this coming winter.
