Verdict

MICRO MANAGE showed plenty of class on the Flat and hurdling has likely always been the long-term plan with him given connections, so he makes obvious appeal having his first go in this sphere. Hurricane Cliff is a threat on the back of a promising hurdling debut and Get My Drift shouldn't be ruled out with further improvement on the cards.

  1. MICRO MANAGE (IRE)
  2. HURRICANE CLIFF (IRE)
  3. GET MY DRIFT (FR)
