Verdict

SURF CLUB jumped well when making a winning start to chasing at Tramore in April and probably found the race coming too soon over hurdles next time, so he's a confident choice to double his tally in this sphere at the possible expense of Bocelli's Voice, who found plenty to score at Wexford last time. Invictus Machine is another one to consider.
