Verdict

Hazy Tom is the only one with a recent run under his belt but he's facing much tougher opposition than that he beat at Bangor last month. TAP NIGHT is the highest rated of these on official figures and has arguably the best piece of form with a second to Captain Conan in a Grade 1 novice chase at Aintree in April. He's just preferred to winning handicapper Cloudy Too and Grey Gold, who signed off last season winning a three-runner affair at Punchestown. Violin Davis was progressive last season though she's still some way behind the principals on form.
