Verdict

Gordon Elliott's HE CAN'T DANCE holds the clear edge on form and looks to have been found a good opportunity to get off the mark over hurdles unless Robertjames proves well above average first time out for Willie Mullins. The selection's stablemate Gunnery Sergeant also enters calculations if, as expected, building on his Fairyhouse second.
