Verdict

Les Arceaux, three times a winner on the Flat, started off well over timber but was then highly tried and pulled up twice. He can do much better as can his stable companion Put The Kettle On, though the latter will probably need further. MISTER BLUE SKY won four times on the Flat in the UK and has obviously been spotted as a potentially nice hurdler so he's handed the vote to make a successful debut. Room To Roam disappointed at Clonmel when tackling 2m4f but had looked a likely future winner over this trip earlier. Everybreathyoutake, a winning point-to-pointer, ran well in a Roscommon bumper but jumping will be his game so is definitely one for the short-list.
