Verdict

New Kid In Town was odds-on at Ballinrobe 12 days ago after a fair fifth behind Full Cry here on his chasing bow. But he dropped away tamely up the straight and now has a bit to prove. SEVEN NATION ARMY was highly regarded at one time but failed to win over hurdles in 11 attempts, including when second again at Cork last Sunday. However, he's with the right trainer to make a name for himself over the larger obstacles. Buyer Beware has been consistent over hurdles and gets a 10lb weight-for-age allowance so can't be ignored. Greatness will have benefited from his run at Killarney but Courtncatcher is going backwards. Holeinthewall Bar was second in a couple of handicaps earlier this summer but looks thoroughly exposed.
