Verdict

PROSPECTUS (NAP), twice a winner over hurdles, wasn't in the best of form when last seen in December but looks well enough treated on his return to the Flat to take this. Pivot Bridge hadn't been going very well at Dundalk before a surprise victory in an amateurs' race there a month ago but Get Out Of Jail was beaten just a neck on very heavy ground over timber here last month and can go well with Robbie Downey's claim a plus. The lightly-raced Strange Notions makes her handicap debut from a lowly mark and could be anything while the selection's stable companion Siempre Amigos produced her best run to date on heavy going at Roscommon in September.
