Verdict

Any repeat of his fine 2½L win last time out when left in the lead at the last in a Punchestown novice handicap hurdle last month should see SIR CARNO take this contest without any problems. The first-time blinkers on Nerul and the mark on handicap debut for Nick Lost could see the pair hitting the frame.
  1. Sir Carno
  2. Nick Lost
  3. Nerual
