Osmotic returns from a long break and his stable look to have a better chance with Prevaricate, a very good second in a big field over 2m at Naas but then disappointing at Navan. Salvador Ziggy came good in a Listowel bumper and is bred to be a stayer but DAILY PRESENT, a winning point-to-pointer, made an excellent debut in a huge field of maiden hurdlers at Naas and can go one better. Amirite won a point in October and made a very satisfactory hurdling debut behind smart stable companion Journey With Me at Leopardstown last month so looks best of the rest.
