ASK THE LEADER is a three-times hurdles winner around here making her chasing debut and though she hasn't run since October she could be good enough. Dont Doubt Me won a Gowran handicap the previous month and is another first-timer over fences but Finnians Row has now had nine starts over the bigger obstacles and only been placed once. Lakefield Flyer hadn't shown much until a narrow defeat by I Don't Get It in a handicap hurdle here earlier this month so has to be of interest on his chasing bow. Themanintheboots was beaten a long way on his only start over fences at Fairyhouse in January.
