Verdict
ABOVE THE CITY could only keep on at one pace when third at Roscommon though that's still better form than any of these have produced and he should be good enough. Nameloc has shown some potential but hasn't run since 2017 while Moylass was beaten a long way in a novices' hurdle at Ayr. Good Reception can improve for his run at Punchestown last month but Rian Thomas followed a 15l third in this last year with a distance defeat at Kilbeggan the following month and hasn't run since.
