Verdict

SOLATENTIF came here for a bumper last month and was well supported, which was very much justified when he ran out an easy winner. He looks certain to make a smart hurdler, starting here. He'll need to be good as Pyromaniac has been in winning form on the Flat recently and has experience over timber having run reasonably at Tipperary last month. Tempo Mac showed major improvement from his debut with a much better effort in a big field at Roscommon but Streak, a winner on the Flat in the UK, has been disappointing so far for new connections.
