Verdict

A PENNY A HUNDRED easily won a Sligo bumper in August and, though that was on good ground, she has to be the selection to make a winning start over timber. Cut The Rope made all for a comfortable victory in a Naas bumper on soft going and looks the main danger though Knocknacree has shown ability over hurdles and has changed stables. Chicago Storm didn't show much on the Flat but may prove a better hurdler after a reasonable debut at Roscommon while Liberated Light won a 1m6f maiden on ground with give at Killarney in the summer.
