HOUSE LIMIT has been running well over timber all summer and reverted to the Flat over a slightly longer trip here earlier this month when runner-up to Bog War, who looked well handicapped. All ground comes alike to the five-year-old and he will take some beating. Teochrios and Hangar Five fought out the finish of a Fairyhouse handicap in June and both have continued in decent form. The winner is 9lb higher so that could just hand the advantage to Pat Flynn's charge though he doesn't win very often and may have to settle for a place again. Byron Beauty was a couple of lengths behind Hangar Five here last month but has very little chance of reversing the form on these terms so Grandma Dotty looks more of a threat after her victory at Roscommon despite being raised 8lb. The lightly-raced Easter Spirit may prove best of the remainder.
