PRIMROSEANDBLUE attempts to get his career back on track over fences after a couple of very poor efforts last year. He's been brought along slowly to gain confidence and his trainer should have him ready to add to his victories in a bumper and over timber. The Mooch looks the main threat as he made a promising start over fences at Wexford and found 3m1f taxing his stamina before falling in the race won by Presenting Beara at Kilbeggan. Tulsa Jack has the look of a staying chaser and should do better when the emphasis is on stamina while Via Del Corso's career strike-rate of 1-43 doesn't inspire confidence on her chasing debut. Green Thirty Two has shown a glimmer of ability and may be capable of better.
