Verdict

The hat-trick beckons for ONE LAST TANGO, who raised his game when opening his hurdles account in a Punchestown handicap in October. He improved again when following up in a novice event at Wexford and this mark should be within reach. Marvel Fan lost little caste in defeat when just touched off back in this sphere at Thurles recently and she is next on the list. Walnut Beach also enters calculations, along with Gold Speed and Winter Fog.
