      Verdict

      A dual bumper winner in Ireland for Willie Mullins' in 2013, Goldboy has his first start since then having subsequently joined Jonjo O'Neill. He makes his hurdling debut today but ARCTIC GOLD (NAP) won over timber at Stratford last month and he gets the nod to defy a penalty given fourth-placed Crickel Wood has gone on to win since. Theatrical Style is another dual winner in bumpers but has yet to threaten over hurdles and stablemate Uncle Monty was well beaten here on his first start over timber. Kalondra and Master Burbidge have yet to show anything yet either.
