Verdict

FULL NOISE landed a gamble with something to spare at Downpatrick last time and remains well treated on hurdle form so should take a bit of stopping again. Gondor shaped quite well in a big field at Leopardstown over Christmas and could be the chief threat if fully primed on his return to action. The shortlist is completed by Tullyhogue Fort, who has done well over hurdles since last seen over fences.

  1. FULL NOISE (IRE)
  2. GONDOR (IRE)
  3. TULLYHOGUE FORT (IRE)
