Verdict

Cool Colonnade was completing a double over fences at this time last year despite being bred for the Flat. He's on a very lowly mark compared to his ability over jumps, a remark that also applies to ZOFFALEE (NAP). Three-times a winner over hurdles last summer, he also ran well in a 1m4f handicap at the Curragh when staying on strongly and Colin Keane's presence is another bonus. Aasleagh Fawn scored over an extra furlong here in September and a run at Leopardstown last weekend will have blown the cobwebs away while Metal Man won a maiden hurdle here in March. Power Drive completed a 1m4f Dundalk double last year before a poor run over hurdles in December but Switch Around looks more of a threat. She's been running over much shorter and her pedigree suggests this is much more likely to be her trip.
