Summersinerrill looks the best of those with experience over timber but didn't appear at ease on the heavy ground at Cork and will find conditions here just as testing. Captains Dilemma, who showed promise on the Flat last year, has been saved for hurdling and along with Noel Meade's Goldarover and the lightly-raced Smoky Cloud, can do well in his new career. Soul Heaven won twice in the UK from just five starts but was picked up very cheaply at the Newmarket Sales in July so this could go to DEVILS BIT, who ran a couple of fine races on ground with some give during the summer for David Wachman and looks the type to make a nice hurdler.
