Verdict
Neveradullmoment enters the fray in winning form having scored over hurdles here in July and has always looked a chaser in the making. He's in the same ownership as PERCEVAL LEGALLOIS, the choice of Mark Walsh, which is hardly surprising given he won a Grade B handicap hurdle on his at Leopardstown in February. He gets the nod though Meetingofthewaters has joined Willie Mullins after landing a point, a bumper and two over timber and his new owner, Patrick, is on board. Itswhatunitesus has some smart form in bumpers and over timber and though pulling up on his chasing bow at Kilbeggan in May was reported to have lost a shoe.
