Verdict

UNFLINCHING made his 2m hurdle debut in what turned out to be a very strong maiden at Limerick last Christmas and is taken to come good on return stepped up to a trip which is sure to suit. Henry de Bromhead's Midtown Manhattan should have more to offer now stepping back up in trip and is second choice ahead of the more-established Young Doran.
