Verdict

FISSA showed fairly useful form when third in a race that worked out well on debut at Punchestown back in the autumn and, whilst it hasn't been all plain sailing since, he's fancied to get back on the up now with definite potential for better still. Champagne Sparkles rates the lead threat, ahead of Captain Mc.
