Verdict

THE LOVELY MAN looked progressive when scoring over fences at Navan 39 days ago on just his second start for this yard and can continue his upward curve switching back to hurdles off the same mark. Jukebox Johnny has shown promise in competitive handicaps and first-time cheekpieces could spark improvement. Aclass is consistently placed with six frame finishes this winter.
