Verdict
MICRO MANAGE, rated 99 on the Flat, was placed in both starts over timber last winter and looks the type to go on to better things. His second at Naas in February was a good effort in what looked a decent race and this should prove within his capabilities. Prairie Dancer, twice a winner on the Flat last summer, started off over hurdles with a very good second at Punchestown but made too many mistakes at Leopardstown last month. Dual bumper winner Flame Bearer was unlucky in-running when a close third on just his second start over timber at Naas earlier this month and looks a big threat while Roaring Potter, runner-up to the smart Grangee here in November, is much better than he showed a month later at Leopardstown.
