Verdict

Gordon Elliott, whose team ran well at the big meeting at Leopardstown on Sunday, has a couple of runners here today starting with Folly Dat. She showed a lot more dash when tackling heavy ground at Down Royal and should make her presence felt but fellow raider ELUSIVE THEATRE looks the one to be on. Stuart Crawford's mare, a winning point-to-pointer and bumper, made the running and was well clear when falling two out here last month. That was over three miles so she's taking a dramatic drop in trip but it will be a surprise if she isn't good enough. Her stable also run Our Valentina, who makes her debut over hurdles after showing promise in bumpers. Princess Mononoke scored between the flags in October and looks the type to do better but it's difficult to get excited about the remainder on what they've shown so far.
