Verdict

HOW ABOUT NO landed a Dundalk maiden on the second of his three starts on the Flat in February and appeals as the type to make his mark in this sphere. He earns the vote ahead of St Faz, who is the clear pick of those with hurdling experience. Spitfire Fighter showed signs of ability on the level and is worth a second look, while point winner Heroes Rise should leave his low-key hurdles debut effort well behind in time.
