    Verdict

    Effernock Lad has only been here once before, scoring over the distance in 2016. He's been in winning form recently though jumped poorly at Galway in October and paid the price at the last. Out Of The Loop, three times a winner over timber, has shown little in three starts over fences but starts off in handicaps off a 10lb lower mark. Allardyce has had plenty of experience and took advantage of heavy going when scoring at Gowran. An 8lb rise made things difficult in a much better race at Leopardstown last week but he performed with credit. But EVERLASTINGPROMISE (NAP) has been in fine form, winning easily at Clonmel and again at Thurles from 17lb higher. He went up another 10lb for that latter victory but ran well for a long way in a much stronger race than this at Navan and looks the one to beat.
