This won't take much winning and AHORSECALLEDMOLLY, successful over hurdles at Roscommon in August, has done enough in her two starts over fences to get the vote. Andrew Lynch's charge found 2m4f too short behind Realt Dubh in a better contest at Navan last time but has jumped well on both outings and should again take care of dual point-to-point winner Not A Native, who was back-pedalling when slipping up at Navan. Wellforth looked a bright prospect when winning three times over hurdles last summer but has been very disappointing and was beaten a long way on his chasing debut at Sligo. Not Before Eight found 2m1f at Sligo much too short on his chasing debut but will need to do much better while West Ship Master, who is making his chasing debut, was a poor performer between the flags though he did improve when sent over hurdles.
