D's Trix opened his account over fences in a race at Limerick in which Burnt Oil Babe was a faller. The former needs more here dropping back in distance off a 7lb higher mark but the latter was still going well when exiting and could turn the tables. Michelle's Express and Fen Game have bits of form that give them place claims, but the preference goes to ANY BETS. He came good on only his fourth start over fences when beating Mantell at Cork last month. He's been raised 6lb for that but Oliver McKiernan's charge has plenty of scope for improvement and is taken to follow-up.
