Where's Frankie completed a hat-trick over hurdles and fences here at the beginning of 2022 but hasn't been seen since April of last year. Gordon Elliott has three entries with Reddys Island bidding to complete a quick double after scoring at Thurles on Thursday. She's returned from a long break having been placed at Downpatrick and Down Royal before Thursday's victory for which she's penalised. Mount Brown hails from a yard going well but he's tackling this trip for the first time while SWEET WILL's form figures hardly make good reading. However, the latter is a talented performer at his best and has moved to Emmet Mullins so a change of scenery could work the oracle. Caragh Monaghan rode a winner for Gavin Cromwell last month and Tempo Chapter Two isn't without a chance.
