NAP of the Day: Ask Anything can provide the answer

Once again, whether or not the NAP of the Day gets a run depends on Clonmel passing an inspection. Fingers crossed it does, for I have high hopes.
NAP of the Day
- 15:32 Clonmel - Ask Anything @ 5/2
I fully expect Henn See to prove popular for this beginners' chase over 2m1f.
There's no doubting that Willie Mullins' six-year-old sets the standard on her second in a similar contest at Wexford last month, but at the same time he's already starting to look a bit exposed and has proved rather frustrating for punters.
At the prices, I'm keen to take him on - and Gavin Cromwell's Ask Anything looks a worthy adversary.
The five-year-old was an expensive - £90,000 to be precise - PTP recruit in November last year before performing with credit in three red-hot bumpers won by Fact To File, Mirazur West and Ballyburn.
He then went on his summer break before reappearing in a maiden hurdle at Limerick in October, which he won comfortably. That wasn't much of a race, but his subsequent effort - when second off 109 in a competitive 17-runner handicap at Navan last month - told the story of a horse firmly on the improve.
It's interesting that connections have decided to waste no time in sending him chasing, despite a progressive profile over the smaller obstacles. Clearly, they must think a lot of him.
This looks a nice starting point. Henn See, despite me wanting to oppose her, is a fair yardstick but to be frank, the other eight runners in this field are pretty underwhelming. I expect a big run.
