Verdict
Largy Debut has some very smart form to his credit and has gone well fresh in the past so an absence shouldn't be a problem. LETSBECLEARABOUTIT, the winner of three bumpers, only won once in six starts over timber but ran well in Grade 1 races at Cheltenham and Aintree in the spring and should make a top chaser. Franciscan Rock was placed in four maiden hurdles before winning one at Thurles and is another making his debut over fences.
