Verdict

CROSSING THE BAR marked himself down as one to be interested in when finishing with a flourish to take second on stable debut at Clonmel 3 weeks ago and, on a handy mark judged on his exploits for Neil Mulholland, he gets the nod to confirm the promise of that effort. Roscommon-second Nevereverever can do better as his jumping improves and is feared, with last-time-out winners Doitforjane Sid and Donacheady Gale others in the mix.
