Lash It On scored over fences and hurdles on good going but pulled up on heavy ground at Wexford when last seen in November. Bye Bye O Bye hasn't been seen since June where he ran well in a Downpatrick handicap though his best form has been on quicker ground than he'll face here, a remark that also applies to the maiden Dark Outsider. COLMS DREAM (NAP) is definitely on the upgrade and followed a narrow defeat over fences under today's rider when defying a last-flight mistake to land a Down Royal handicap. A 5lb rise isn't excessive and a follow-up looks on the cards. Spancil Hill ran a bit better at Gowran last time and will appreciate the likely stiff test of stamina so he could snatch a place.
