NOTIMELIKEDPRESENT very much caught the eye when a staying-on fifth at Tramore in November and Robert Tyner's gelding gets the verdict, with the step up to 3m looking sure to suit. Aine's Lad has been right back to his best over hurdles of late and has to be respected making the switch to fences, with recent Navan runner-up Duce Bigalow also of interest.
