Verdict

Ultimate Horseman has a penalty for his bumper victory in May and has to concede weight to some promising rivals. He's still likely to be involved in the finish with his yard in such good form though GRANGECLARE ROSA (NAP) should have the edge in receipt of 15lb. Willie Mullins' mare was making her hurdling debut and having her first start since September when just failing to hold off Balinaboola Prince at Wexford with the remainder well beaten. Nautical Nitwit ran a superb race over this trip at Punchestown before finding 2m5f too short at Tramore while Little Vinnie is much better than she showed at Downpatrick when last seen in September.
