Verdict

FUNICULI FUNICULA hasn't been seen for 15 months since an excellent second over hurdles at Auteuil but his new yard is adept at bringing them back from lengthy absences and he's worth a chance to improve past Addragoole, who sets the standard but is more exposed. Battleoftheboyne is a notable newcomer.
