Verdict

Useful hurdler IMPERO is entitled to improve for his first spin chasing at Kilbeggan where he gave a good sighter for a long way and could be the way to go over the consistent Scalpnagoon. The Willie Mullins pair Soir de Garde and Nadia's Boy could both do better now sent over fences but arrive with a bit to prove.

1	Useful hurdler who showed aptitude for chasing (jumped soundly at the head of affairs) at Kilbeggan and should prove capable of better back down in trip.

3	Fairly useful over hurdles and has translated that ability to chasing, placed once more when third at Roscommon (2m) 3 weeks ago, getting tired late in the day. Deserves a change of luck. 2nd Pick 3 Scalpnagoon (Ire) Jockey: J. W. Kennedy Trainer: Gordon Elliott, Ireland J: J. W. Kennedy T: Gordon Elliott, Ireland	95	-	-	-	34%

4	Chased home El Fabiolo in 5-runner minor event at Leopardstown in March and was booked for third when falling at the last at Cork next time. However, he ran no sort of race at the Punchestown Festival, jumping poorly, and needs to get back on track making chase debut. 3rd Pick 4 Soir De Garde (Fr) Jockey: S. F. O'keeffe Trainer: W. P.
