In depth

Verdict

The Jam Man, five times a winner over hurdles, ran much better than expected in a 1m4f Tipperary maiden last month but is likely to find this too short. He had Smart Living behind but the latter was making his racecourse debut and can reverse the form with that under his belt. Make The Switch led for a long way when tackling 1m5f at Navan in October so this trip should be more to her liking while Latoyah Of North has shown enough in her three runs to be respected at this level. MINNIE HAHA has had enough chances and been disappointing but she's rarely been beaten far against better opposition and can finally get off the mark.
