Verdict

It's over a year since Quick Jack ran but he's a real classy handicapper at his best as he showed when landing the 2015 Galway Hurdle so he shouldn't be ruled out. Yaha Fizz completed a hat-trick at the beginning of the year and has returned in excellent form having only just failed to make all in a very competitive handicap at Fairyhouse when the favourite Ben Dundee had every chance. TRAINWRECK looked a nice recruit to hurdles when scoring at Clonmel and probably came up against a decent performer when just outpaced by Us And Them at Punchestown so he looks quite well in and can get back to winning ways. Baby Jake is very consistent but needs to find a bit more as does Geneva Barracks, who is up 2lb for finishing third last time.
