Verdict
THE SHORT GO was withdrawn from a race here on Wednesday as the ground was deemed to be too quick so he'll want some rain. His second to the subsequent dual Grade 1 winner The Nice Guy at Naas is by far the strongest hurdling form on view so he's taken to go one better. The winner's yard is represented by Spread Boss Ted and Kottayam with Paul Townend favouring the former, runner-up to stablemate No Risk No Fun, who sauntered in on his hurdling bow here on Wednesday, in a Galway bumper. Danny Mullins is on board Kottayam, an impressive Kilbeggan bumper winner, who scored on the Flat at Tramore last month. Moonovercloon has some experience over timber and has improved markedly with each run in bumpers culminating in a victory at Kilbeggan three weeks ago.Joseph O'Brien has won the last two of these and Dawn Rising looks certain to improve from his opening run over timber at Galway.
