BIDDY THE BOSS hasn't run since her close second to the useful Classic Theatre at Tramore in April but her trainer will have her ready for this and Jamie Codd is on board so she can go one better. Moonlight Escape was well supported for her debut at Navan last month and, though only managing to stay on at one pace, will have come on a bundle for the experience. Petite Buck's started odds-on at Navan in August but was eventually beaten a long way and will need to do much better. Betsy Boots hasn't done much wrong but is well exposed unlike Maple Lawn, who will improve from her run in the summer. John Kiely's runners are always worth noting in bumpers and Derek O'Connor has been booked for the newcomer Uisce Solas.
