Verdict

The high-class Marine Nationale won this last year and A DREAM TO SHARE can follow suit. John Kiely's brilliant bumper won the Championship events here and at Cheltenham in his five-timer and should take high rank among novice hurdlers this campaign. Barometer has shown a bit of potential in three starts over timber and has been running reasonably well on the Flat this summer. Fascile Mode made a winning bumper start at Leopardstown but was well behind the selection at Leopardstown and Cheltenham and though Qatar Spirit ran his best race to date over hurdles at Gowran, he'll need much more here.
