The novice Villa Moura makes her handicap debut in what looks a moderate race and her placed effort at Downpatrick in June puts her in the frame. Fu's Island gained a shock victory at Tramore in August and didn't run badly at Down Royal later but this can go to CRIMSON CHIEF, who alternates between hurdles and fences. A winner between the flags, he's shown in his two latest starts that a victory is imminent and Mikey Hamill's claim is a plus. She'stherightone could hardly be more consistent but keeps going up in the weights without winning. Premier D'troice looked to have a chance in the 3.25 at Clonmel yesterday but would enter the equation if turning up here.
