      Verdict

      Risk And Roll has had a wind operation since running three times in quick succession in the autumn. It may bring about some improvement but will need to as he races from 4lb out of the handicap in his first run against older horses. DICOSIMO (NAP) has also had recent surgery to help his breathing and it appeared to work as he never looked like being caught under a similar big weight at Fontwell last month and his rider’s claim negates the 6lb rise. Canelie won over course and distance on his first start for Harry Fry and can probably be forgiven a subsequent run in a big field at Leopardstown so rates a danger but Here's Herbie has had his chances this season and Night Of Sin probably needs some help from the handicapper. Eureu Du Boulay had little chance in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham and was pulled up but may need more time.
