Verdict
Wolf Prince's close second to A Wave Of The Sea in the Grade 1 Spring Juvenile Hurdle at Leopardstown is the best form on view but he was beaten a long way in a Down Royal handicap three weeks ago. The filly Get Free is thrown in at the deep end on her debut for Tony Martin after her victory in a claimer at Pau but Never Do Nothing was very highly tried after scoring easily at Musselburgh in January and is fit from the Flat. Call Me Lyreen warmed to his task to complete a double at Sligo but takes on much stronger company here as does Indiana Jones from his impressive victory at Cork. GARS EN NOIR has an entry in next week's Grade 1 Royal Bond so is obviously highly thought of. He may have won at Pau on his debut but for falling and made amends with a smooth victory at Auteuil so can make a successful debut for the champion trainer.
