Verdict

Having shaped well on his penultimate start in this sphere, BEGGARS ROCK ran his best race to date when third on chase debut at Cork 2 weeks ago, a final flight mistake arguably costing him victory. Back over hurdles with first-time blinkers enlisted, he could be the answer. Last year's winner Tomjackwilliam is a big danger along with recent winners Dancing After Dark and Crowsatedappletart. Grace Faraday also needs factoring in.

  1. BEGGARS ROCK (IRE)

  3. DANCING AFTER DARK (IRE)
