A slightly more interesting race than the opening division with OSKAR HIGH (NAP) coming good at Ballinrobe after a long losing run. This looks no tougher and he can defy a 7lb rise. No Logic appeared to find 3m1f just beyond him at Kilbeggan and is better judged on his second over this trip at Downpatrick. Dundeedy Lad reverts from fences where he hasn't been running badly but four-times chase winner Well Joey is 0-17 over hurdles. Orcadian Symphony has shown a bit of potential in maidens and makes his handicap debut.
