Verdict

HOP IN just gets the vote here as he had been running well over hurdles before a promising debut effort over fences behind Blazing Sonnet and the more experienced Kilcarry Bridge at Thurles. The latter is inconsistent and may not quite have the scope of the selection. Kandinski doesn't always find much in a battle but was well supported in the same event after a fine run behind Coolking at Sligo though was brought down at the first. Time Please made good progress over hurdles early last summer and looks a chaser in the making so the lack of a recent run may not be too much of a problem. Namarama appeared to have been affected by his fall at Limerick when running poorly next time but didn't perform badly behind the promising Mount Colah at Thurles on his latest start.
