Verdict

Plenty of these arrive in good form including the lightly-raced and progressive Christmas Jumper, who followed a narrow defeat at Tramore by dead-heating at Killarney. He's never been the trip unlike ROYAL AIDE, who was always travelling like a winner when scoring over an extra furlong at Kilbeggan and has a course and distance victory to his credit. Miss Tempo battled to victory in a 2m5f Tramore maiden and starts out in handicaps on a fair mark with Hugh Morgan's claim a bonus but Definiteadare is up 2lb for being beaten seven lengths at Tipperary. The veteran Pass The Ball is very well handicapped if anywhere near his best while Rare Conor, from a yard going well, is 0-20 but will surely be winning soon judging by three recent narrow defeats
