Verdict

The Noel Meade-trained, UNION GAP was not disgraced in a number of starts during a summer jumping campaign and can return to action here to get off the mark for connections at the sixth time of asking over hurdles. The four-year-old gelding Tomeric is clearly better than his last start suggests and can make life difficult for the principles along with Listowel second Fou Diligence and the returning Willie Mullins-trained Formentera.
