A low-grade handicap in which Tullyhogue Fort arrives on a 12lb higher mark after last month's easy victory at Galway. ESTHERS MARVEL has now had 21 starts without winning but she's been placed several times from similar marks and today could be her day. Hopefully's only victory came from 6lb higher a year ago while Influential Lady has never won though her recent placed effort at Listowel put her in the picture. Zagnzig is 1-28 over hurdles and his recent neck defeat at Sligo came over the bigger obstacles.
