BOSMAN RULE has always looked a potentially useful staying hurdler and though carrying a penalty for his recent bumper success can make a winning start to his new career. Dun Scaith will ensure he has a good test despite a moderate run at Galway where he will have found the minimum trip too short. Six Books looks as though he needs quicker ground than he'll get here but Milan Ridge had been going well over this trip before disappointing over shorter at Sligo last time.
