Verdict
DADS LAD looks to have got in here lightly after completing a hat-trick over fences and on the Flat. He sauntered home over the bigger obstacles at Killarney last month and is now rated 132, 16lb higher than his hurdling mark. Paul Townend would struggle to do the weight so he rides Farout for the stable but his mount was a long way behind Tudor City in the Galway Hurdle. Tony Martin's charge, who was winning the race for the second time, comes alive in these big races but has a 7lb rise to contend with and was behind Effernock Fizz at Killarney last month. Gordon Elliott has four entries and Glan, just over three lengths behind in the Galway Hurdle, has a chance of turning the tables on 6lb better terms. Flaming Moon beat Amir Kabir at Galway but the runner-up reversed the form here on Wednesday. My Mate Mozzie was well beaten in the Galway Hurdle but has subsequently run a fine race in the valuable Petingo Handicap on the Flat at Leopardstown.
