Verdict
The expensive Boola Boola failed to live up to his pedigree on the Flat but has a winning bumper in his family. Clifftop has been doing better on the Flat recently, scoring at Leopardstown in June, and last month's run over timber at Downpatrick was also a major improvement on anything previously shown so he could be good enough for a place at least. Wojood was placed twice over hurdles last autumn but this can go to COTTIE (NAP). Henry De Bromhead's mare has had four starts over hurdles with two second places at Kilbeggan to her credit though her best run was probably her latest when not beaten far in a handicap at the Galway Festival.
