Rolly Bowley Boy won over hurdles here in January and was making his chasing bow when unseating in a similar race on a return visit last month. He started favourite that day and was leading when coming to grief so supporters will be looking for compensation. GALI FLIGHT, a 20-race maiden over hurdles, made a very promising debut over fences at Thurles where a mistake when in the lead at the last may have cost him the race. He can go one better though Old Soul, a winner over timber at Punchestown in December, has gone well in both starts over fences and has the scope to do better. Butterflyvespiere could find the ground too testing but Magheralin Mick was in good form over hurdles last summer, though may just need the run. Winning bumper and hurdler Teescomponentsyess has failed to finish in both starts over fences.
