Verdict

A repeat of the form FOU DILIGENCE showed when placed in a handicap at Naas last time might be good enough to see him get off the mark over fences. Ben Thomson came good over hurdles last time and will be a threat if able to reproduce that form now chasing. Dancing Jeremy could also have a say if primed for his new stable after an absence.
