A huge field of mainly unexposed hurdlers but TIMI ROLI may well start at prohibitive odds with his stable now firing on all cylinders. A very easy winner on the Flat at Royanne last August, he's related to several useful jumpers in France and can make a successful debut. Chirico Vallis cost J P McManus 355,000 euros at the sales a year ago after a couple of runs in France and he's another with a superb pedigree for jumping. Mandamus attained a Flat rating of 98 and though he only won once he'll be better for his debut over timber at Naas a couple of weeks ago, though No Brainer could pose more of a threat after a fine racecourse debut at Gowran in September where he wasn't beaten far after attempting to make all.
