Verdict
Delirious Love made a couple of mistakes over fences at Kilbeggan then landed a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse. Hostage To Fortune found 2m4f just too far at on the latter track and today's heavier conditions won't help but Napoleon Blue stays further and his stamina should come into play. EXIT TO THE WEST (NAP) easily landed a point at Nenagh in February and reappeared in a Listowel handicap hurdle in September when winning easily. This is her debut over regulation fences but she's the type her trainer does so well with. Midland Millie landed a handicap hurdle at Punchestown before staying on when runner-up over 2m2f on her chasing bow so she's an obvious threat.
