Verdict

The Joseph O'Brien-trained SEMPO can get off the mark at the third attempt for connections to continue the improvement shown since his debut at Fairyhouse in November. The son of Oscar can progress once more with the eight-year-old Minella Encore proving to be the biggest danger for trainer Willie Mullins. Heroes Of Renown ran with plenty of credit on his second hurdle starts at Leopardstown over Christmas and looks capable of hitting the frame ahead of the Noel Meade-trained Face The Odds. Rapid Response for Jessica Harrington could go well at a price.
