Verdict

LIP SERVICE (NAP) never won over hurdles but did well enough to achieve a rating of 118, which he looks certain to surpass after an impressive debut success over the bigger obstacles at Tramore. He didn't have much to beat and was left clear at the last but he can take this before going on to better things. Havana Dancer is the only rival not to have achieved a chase rating though she jumped really well when winning at Fairyhouse earlier this month. Old Castletown completed a Tramore double the last time he ran over fences and has since performed with credit over hurdles while Canaly's experience could stand him in good stead as he's won three times from 23 starts. Rock On Fruity only won once over hurdles but has shown ability over fences when managing to stay on his feet and is one to keep an eye on.
