Verdict
Gavin Cromwell has three entries and winning hurdler Ujumpthelastuwin might have lost his maiden tag over fences but for falling in three of his last five. Two Shoe Tom, a consistent performer over timber, made a very promising debut over fences here last month while dual hurdles winner Ferdia ran well enough on his chasing debut at Ballinrobe to suggest he can make the grade over fences. Toofareastiswest is bred for chasing so his victory over timber when well supported at Limerick was a bonus. UPPING THE ANTI easily landed a Clonmel maiden hurdle in November then found heavy ground against him at Limerick the following month. He looks the type his yard does so well with and can make a successful debut over fences.
