In depth

Verdict

Razoul landed a Grade B handicap over timber in September then finished second in a Grade 3 at Tipperary so he's interesting on his chasing bow. Line Out looked a likely future winner over fences when placed at Thurles in January but ran poorly on his reappearance at Tipperary earlier this month when DOMMAGE POUR TOI was third. The latter ran in Grade 1 company last season after a very good second at Navan and looks the one to beat. Three-times hurdles winner Cliff House has had a dozen starts over fences without winning while the selection's stable companion Stacks Mountain made far too many mistakes on his chasing bow at Roscommon on Monday.
