Most of these have had enough chances including Forty Foot Tom, who has come up against some useful opposition in his three runs over timber and hasn't disgraced himself. JETSON has done nothing wrong and has probably been crying out for a longer trip. This should play to his strengths and this Navan bumper winner can finally get off the mark over timber. Westmeath, a winner between the flags and of a bumper, started a very short price favourite on his hurdling debut at Ballinrobe in September but was struggling when badly impeded at the last. He's probably capable of better while Harpsy Cord, a winner at Dromahane in September, ran well enough on his hurdling bow at Leopardstown to suggest he has a future at this game.
