Verdict

Na Caith Tobac completed a double on the Flat in the autumn and though well beaten behind Quilixios on his hurdling debut at Down Royal won't be meeting anything of the winner's standard here. Ilmig won a 1m6f maiden here in October and started off well over hurdles at Punchestown but was beaten a long way at Leopardstown in December. PALACE ROCK landed a 1m4f Dundalk maiden last month on just his third start. His dam was a winning hurdler from a jumping family so he's taken to make a successful debut over timber. Barncroft has a cracking pedigree for jumping and is definitely one to watch along with Dreamsrmadeofthis, who is out of a very smart mare.
