The 14-year-old Letter Of Credit, three times a winner over fences, gained his only success over hurdles on this track though that was way back in 2011. Georgieshore, twice a winner in the UK, was there with every chance when falling two out on his debut for Gavin Cromwell here earlier this month and will be fancied to gain compensation. But MUROOR looked ready to regain the winning thread when runner-up to Persian Wind at Downpatrick and a similar effort can see him go one better. Bomber Jackson, a winner at Listowel last September, has only had four subsequent starts but is still 6lb higher.
