Verdict

Toughari, a winner on the Flat in October, has yet to race beyond 2m1f and this is a big step-up in trip. Minella On Line has no problems with the trip having won between the flags since finishing second at Cork while Lessofdnegativity made all over the trip at Tipperary before falling over fences at Wexford. Flamin Aimee has a chance at her best and Barry O'Neill is a significant booking as is Derek O'Connor for STAMP YOUR FEET, who produced his best run for a long time on his return from a long break at Ballinrobe where he will have found the trip too short. Ask David has no problems with the distance and a 7lb rise for a comfortable success at Punchestown is unlikely to prevent another big effort.
