Verdict

MICRO MANAGE was a useful winner on the level and can open his account in this sphere on the back of his good Fairyhouse novice second. Highland Charge has the form to play a part too in his bid to add to his Fairyhouse bumper success. Gordon Elliott's hurdling newcomer Devil's Cut has a lengthy absence to overcome but this Downpatrick bumper scorer shouldn't be underestimated either.

  1. MICRO MANAGE (IRE)
  2. HIGHLAND CHARGE (IRE)
  3. DEVIL'S CUT (IRE)
