Verdict

FIA FUINIDH has taken well to fences and is fancied to build on his second to Ardera Cross over C&D last time and gain a first success in this sphere. William Young's veteran is feared most in his bid to follow up last year's win in this event, with fellow C&D scorers Netywell and Rocco Storm also firmly in the picture.
