Verdict

The market will probably tell us what's expected from impressive points winner Thecraicisninety after a lengthy absence but he's one to note for the future. Minella Scamp should do better now tackling fences and Arthur Moore's pair Ontopoftheworld and Skellig Rocks aren't out of this. Space Cadet has finished second in five of his seven starts over hurdles and deserves a change of luck but the same can probably be said of CALL IT MAGIC (NAP). Only out of the frame once over the smaller obstacles last season, he's already won a point-to-point so his future should be over fences and Ross O'Sullivan has secured the services of Ruby Walsh again.
