Winning point-to-pointer Tango Moll mainly plods round at her own pace over timber which may not be a bad thing in the context of this event. GRIESENAU's second to Vesper Bell at Fairyhouse in January is the stand-out form here and though only moderate since he only need reproduce that to land the spoils here. Winning point-to-pointer Moyas Charm has one decent effort to her credit over hurdles but her overall form gives her plenty to do and the market could be the best guide to the chances of the remainder.
