Dual Flat winner FALVIO produced much his best effort since switched to hurdles when runner-up at Naas a fortnight ago and, with further improvement likely now faced with a stiffer test, he looks the way to go. Jump The Shark was a promising fourth in the same race on his handicap debut and is also likely to benefit from this step up in trip. He is feared most ahead of another likely improver in the shape of Morrie In D Quarry.
