Verdict

The veteran Youngnedofthehill is the only course and distance winner having gained just the second victory of his career on his 41st start in November. He's up 5lb and Conor McNamara, who rode him that day, is unable to use his claim here. WAIT HERE scored at Punchestown in October and has returned in good shape having been unlucky in-running when beaten a neck at Naas. He can get back on the winning trail though Djasek also failed to get a clear run in that latter event when close behind in fourth so has to be respected. Jiving Jerry scored at Killarney in August off a mark of 87 and is now 16lb higher following several fine efforts, including a victory at Galway, though he hasn't run since November. Morning Skye has run some fair races and has the potential to improve while Shakeytry looks best of the remainder.
